Explore New Windsor, New York, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for New Windsor, 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 New Windsor.
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.

New Windsor commands a position of quiet strength upon the landscape, defined by its inland terrestrial character and the steady flow of Quassaic Creek just a mile from its center. It lies 2.0 miles south-southwest of Newburgh, NY (from Newburgh, NY: bearing 201°T), and is situated 7.6 miles west-southwest of Fishkill. The terrain here is shaped by the subtle influence of the surrounding woodlands, where the dense greenery of Black Rock Forest provides a natural barrier only five miles away. Travelers often remark on the distinct quality of light as it settles over the rolling topography, casting long, amber shadows across the fields toward the distant Appalachian Mountains that frame the western horizon. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the land dips into the gentle depression of The Clove, while the modest surface of Browns Pond offers a still, reflective reprieve from the pace of modern movement.
New Windsor carries the weight of its colonial origins, having served as a vital strategic location during the foundational struggles of the nation. The local economy has evolved from its agrarian roots into a diverse network of commerce and industry, supporting businesses that value the accessibility of this inland corridor. Many residents find employment in manufacturing and logistics, sectors that utilize the well-established infrastructure connecting the region to broader markets. The rhythm of daily life is punctuated by the steady hum of commerce, which occupies the space between the quiet, wooded outskirts and the more developed commercial zones. Throughout the changing seasons, the local workforce maintains a tradition of industriousness that mirrors the endurance of the land itself.
New Windsor preserves a cultural character that balances progress with a deep respect for its historical landmarks, such as the site where the final encampment of the Continental Army once stood. Residents and visitors alike often spend their leisure time exploring the expansive outdoor areas designated as the Town Of New Windsor Land, which provides a necessary green lung for the inhabitants. Those seeking a more rigorous connection to the wilderness frequently traverse the Pipe Line Trail, finding the terrain both challenging and deeply restorative. While many notable figures have passed through these lands, the legacy of the area is perhaps most tied to the presence of Henry Knox, whose artillery command during the Revolutionary War remains a cornerstone of local heritage. The spirit of the place is defined by these enduring connections, maintaining a steady, grounded identity that persists through every shift in the modern era.

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.
