Explore Pine City, 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 Pine City, 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 Pine City.
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.

Pine City emerges from the landscape as a quiet intersection where the persistent, narrow thread of Dry Run carves its way through the earth, marking the pulse of the local topography. It lies 4.8 miles southwest of Elmira, NY (from Elmira, NY: bearing 221°T), and is situated 9.3 miles south-southwest of Horseheads. This corridor of land serves as a sheltered basin, drawing the eye toward the deeper, shadows-heavy recesses of Christian Hollow that lie only a short distance away. The air here holds a distinct, crisp clarity, especially as the late afternoon light flattens against the slope of the land, turning the grasses a pale, bruised gold. Beyond the immediate reach of the valley, the terrain rises in long, deliberate swells that suggest the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains, visible only when the sky is stripped of its humidity. Residents often find their way to the quiet expanse of Draxler Park, a space that anchors the community and offers a place to watch the seasons shift across the soil without the intrusion of heavy industry or the clamor of wider thoroughfares.
History in Pine City remains quietly inscribed in the way the local economy has adapted to the surrounding woodlands and the fertile, albeit demanding, ground. While the regional identity is shaped by the presence of distant, larger forest tracts like Cliffside State Forest, the life of the inhabitants stays anchored to the immediate rhythm of the land and the nearby, reflective waters of Foster Pond. The local character is defined by a slow, methodical pace, a legacy of agricultural roots that have transitioned into a more modern, modest independence. There is little fanfare in the daily movement of traffic or the tending of properties, yet the area maintains an enduring sense of permanence that resists the frantic pace of the state’s more dense, urban corridors. Life here favors the practical, finding a subtle, understated beauty in the way the winter frost clings to the banks of the creek or how the autumn foliage settles into the hollows, marking the passage of time with a consistency that feels both honest and deliberate.

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.
