How to Use This Hoosick Falls, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hoosick Falls, 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 Hoosick Falls.
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 Hoosick Falls, New York
Hoosick Falls is a locality in Rensselaer County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,216. The population density is 777.0 people per km². Hoosick Falls is located at 42.9012°N, 73.3515°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Hoosick Falls is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 12090.Hoosick Falls marks the confluence of rugged topography and the persistent, rushing waters of the Hoosic River, which carves a deliberate path through the landscape. It lies 19.2 miles east-northeast of Halfmoon, NY (from Halfmoon, NY: bearing 75°T), and is situated 8.0 miles west-northwest of Bennington. The terrain surrounding Hoosick Falls rises in broken, earthen ridges that eventually yield to the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Adirondack Mountains far to the north. Only four miles away, the quiet stillness of Echo Lake offers a stark contrast to the kinetic energy of the river, while the dense, shaded canopy of State Forest Rensselaer Number 3 provides a sprawling refuge of timber and undergrowth. Within the village proper, the light at dusk catches the brick facades and steep inclines of Wood Park Ln, casting long, sharp shadows that emphasize the gravity of the valley floor.
Industrial ambition defined the early trajectory of Hoosick Falls, as the power of the water once turned the wheels of heavy manufacturing that anchored the regional economy. This legacy of labor remains written in the structural bones of the older mills and the sturdy, unadorned architecture that defines the village streetscape. Life here operates with a measured, deliberate pace, far removed from the frantic density of the state’s southern reaches. Residents occasionally venture toward the Pine Valley area to observe the changing seasons, or travel ten miles to traverse the Bald Mountain Trail, seeking a vantage point over the undulating expanse. Despite the shifting tides of commerce, the identity of Hoosick Falls persists as a product of its isolation, sustained by the steady flow of the river and a quiet, enduring commitment to the land.

About This Hoosick Falls Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hoosick Falls, New York. Coordinates: 42.901189, -73.3515. 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 Hoosick Falls includes the ZIP code (12090), telephone area code (518), county seat of Rensselaer County (Troy), and school district assignment (Hoosick Falls Central 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.
