How to Use This Crown Heights, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Crown Heights, New York. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of New York or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Crown Heights.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Crown Heights, New York
Crown Heights is a locality in Dutchess County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,872. The population density is 1313.8 people per km². Crown Heights is located at 41.6373°N, 73.9379°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12601.Crown Heights rises as a dense, structured grid of brick and brownstone, asserting its presence upon the elevated plateau of the landscape. It lies 4.0 miles west-northwest of Myers Corner, NY (from Myers Corner, NY: bearing 303°T), and is situated 4.4 miles south-southwest of Poughkeepsie. Casper Creek flows quietly through the surrounding terrain just one mile away, marking a low point in a region otherwise defined by the steady, inland press of the earth. The light here catches the sharp edges of limestone cornices during the late afternoon, casting long, geometric shadows across the pavement where the pulse of the neighborhood gathers. On the distant horizon, the Appalachian Mountains suggest a jagged, ancient boundary, though the immediate world remains a tight composition of stoops and iron railings. Residents often gather at the Crown Heights Clubhouse, a local space that anchors the daily movement of the neighborhood against the backdrop of an inland sky that feels vast and unencumbered by the humidity of the coast.
History in Crown Heights persists in the heavy, ornamental masonry of the turn-of-the-century architecture and the enduring weight of its cultural intersections. The local economy thrives on a complex interplay of small-scale commerce and the steady, rhythmic transit of those moving toward the centers of trade, maintaining a pace that values the persistence of the individual. While Chadwick Lake lies eight miles distant, the influence of water is absent from the dry, urban air, which instead carries the scent of roasted coffee and the sounds of a crowded street. The legacy of the area is found in the varied textures of its residential blocks, where the stone is worn smooth by generations and the morning air holds a crisp, northern clarity. Unlike the wilder expanses near Black Rock Forest, Crown Heights functions as a deliberate, human-made environment, grounded in the quiet assertion of its own architectural gravity.

About This Crown Heights Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Crown Heights, New York. Coordinates: 41.637316, -73.937915. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for Crown Heights includes the ZIP code (12601), telephone area code (845), county seat of Dutchess County (Poughkeepsie), and school district assignment (Spackenkill Union Free School District).
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
