How to Use This Garrison, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Garrison, 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 Garrison.

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 Garrison, New York

Garrison is a locality in Putnam County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,800. The population density is 120.0 people per km². Garrison is located at 41.3840°N, 73.9457°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 10524.

Garrison claims a rugged dominance over the eastern bank of the Hudson River, where the earth rises sharply from the water to meet the dense, verdant expanse of the Hudson Highlands State Park Preserve. It lies 5.0 miles northwest of Putnam Valley, NY (from Putnam Valley, NY: bearing 312°T), and is situated 9.4 miles northwest of Yorktown. The terrain here is defined by deep, shadowed glens and steep, rocky outcrops that plummet toward the riverbed, creating a dramatic corridor known as Worlds End. Sunlight filters through the canopy of Black Rock Forest only a few miles away, casting long, fractured shadows across the landscape, while the mist that clings to the base of Buttermilk Falls provides a persistent, cool dampness to the air. Those who traverse the Redoubt Trail find themselves moving through a silent, ancient topography where the silence is broken only by the shifting of loose shale and the deep, rhythmic pulse of the river below.

Garrison retains a quiet, deliberate character that feels removed from the frenetic pace of the downstate metropolitan centers, despite the lingering echoes of its strategic military past. The local economy has shifted from the agrarian and industrial efforts of earlier centuries to a more reserved existence, favoring the preservation of sprawling historic estates that overlook the water. Residents move with a measured independence, their daily lives shaped by the presence of the Hudson Highlands State Park Preserve and the proximity of Lusk Reservoir, which serves as a still, reflective anchor in the hills. Even as the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a faint, purple-hued suggestion of scale on the horizon, the focus here remains tightly held by the immediate, imposing presence of the river and the steep, uncompromising geology that dictates how the land is used and remembered.

About This Garrison Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Garrison, New York. Coordinates: 41.383983, -73.945694. 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 Garrison includes the ZIP code (10524), telephone area code (914, 845), county seat of Putnam County (Carmel), and school district assignment.

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.
