Explore Port Jervis, 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 Port Jervis, 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 Port Jervis.
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.

Port Jervis occupies a dramatic convergence where the Delaware River carves deep into the earth, creating the rugged, steep-walled expanse of the Delaware River Gorge. It lies 14.8 miles west-southwest of Middletown, NY (from Middletown, NY: bearing 251°T), and is situated 6.8 miles east-northeast of Milford Pike County. The surrounding terrain rises into sharp, forested ridges that catch the shifting light of dawn, casting long, violet shadows across the valley floor. While the Appalachian Mountains loom distantly on the horizon, the immediate landscape is defined by the intimate proximity of the river and the quiet, reflective surface of Reservoir Number One. Millennium Park provides a central green threshold where the rush of the water meets the stillness of the land. In the cooler months, the air grows crisp and thin, carrying the scent of damp earth and pine from the nearby Stokes State Forest. Travelers may wander toward the local landscape, where the terrain feels ancient and undisturbed, save for the patient persistence of the current.
Port Jervis emerged as a vital nexus for industry, built upon the strength of the railroad and the steady, reliable trade flowing through the valley. The local economy transitioned from the industrious pulse of coal and transit hubs to a modern mosaic of small commerce and regional services. Throughout its history, the grit of labor has defined the character of the people, leaving behind a legacy of brick-and-mortar resilience that remains visible in the architecture of the downtown district. Residents often remark on the quiet determination required to maintain such an outpost, where the rhythm of daily work mimics the constant, forward motion of the river. The industries here have shifted, yet the fundamental ambition of the workforce continues to shape the economic identity of Port Jervis. Even as the modern world accelerates, the town retains a grounded, pragmatic approach to the commerce that sustains its families.
Cultural life in Port Jervis reflects a blend of deep-rooted heritage and a modest, unpretentious spirit that prizes community connection over grand spectacle. The Peenpack Trail offers a path for those seeking to traverse the woods and connect with the natural history that surrounds the settlement. Visitors often find themselves drawn to the sight of Pinchot Falls, where the water tumbles over rock, providing a sharp, melodic contrast to the silence of the woods. While the town is a quiet place, it has been home to notable figures such as the renowned writer Stephen Crane, who found inspiration in the atmospheric intensity of the region. Local events frequently gather citizens in the open spaces of the parks, fostering a sense of shared purpose that persists through the changing seasons. The character of the people here is as enduring as the stone cliffs, marked by a quiet intelligence and a profound appreciation for the land that anchors their lives.

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.
