How to Use This Modena, New York Map

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

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.

Modena emerges from the rural stillness as a collection of quiet roads and modest dwellings, anchored by the terrestrial weight of the surrounding earth. It lies 3.8 miles north-northwest of Plattekill, NY (from Plattekill, NY: bearing 339°T), and is situated 9.6 miles west-southwest of Poughkeepsie. The landscape here favors the slow transition of seasons, where the cool, heavy air of the inland basin settles over the fields long before the shadows lengthen. Two miles from the quiet currents of Black Creek, the environment remains defined by a pastoral gravity that feels distant from the frantic pace of larger metropolitan hubs. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains provide a jagged, permanent border against the horizon, while the local terrain remains softened by the proximity of Lake Sunset. During the amber hours of late afternoon, the light catches the dew on the grass at Thomas Felton Community Park, rendering the simple, open grounds into a temporary study of golden clarity.

Modena retains the character of an enduring agricultural settlement, shaped by a history of cultivation that continues to color the local economy and daily routine. The land, distinct from the distant, broken topography of the Rosendale Plains, supports a rhythm of life that prizes the steady labor of the orchard and the workshop over the fleeting distractions of modern industry. Beyond the immediate reach of the trees in Black Rock Forest, the people of Modena maintain a quiet, self-contained existence, where the primary landmarks are the enduring structures of local commerce and the modest expanse of public space. There is a perceptible dignity in the way the morning mist clings to the low-lying acreage, a reminder of a time when the pace of life was dictated entirely by the sun and the soil. This locality functions as a bridge between the deep, silent woods and the cultivated fields, holding its own against the encroachment of the surrounding wild.

About This Modena Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Modena, New York. Coordinates: 41.668427, -74.102644. 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 Modena includes the ZIP code (12548), telephone area code (845), county seat of Ulster County (Kingston), 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.
