How to Use This Red Hook, New York Map

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

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.

Red Hook stretches across a low-lying peninsula where the industrial grit of the waterfront fades into the quiet, salt-tinged air of the harbor. It lies 1.6 miles west of Park Slope Brooklyn, NY (from Park Slope Brooklyn, NY: bearing 276°T), and is situated 2.7 miles south of New York. The horizon is dominated by the silhouette of Governors Island, a silent sentinel rising from the water just one mile away, while the presence of the Hudson River two miles to the west draws the eye toward the shifting, slate-colored currents. In the humid afternoons, the light catches the brick facades of the neighborhood, casting long, amber shadows that seem to stretch toward the distant, hazy blue outline of the Appalachian Mountains. Here, the landscape is defined by the proximity of the Wallabout Channel, three miles distant, whose rhythmic tides dictate the slow, heavy pulse of the atmosphere.

Red Hook maintains a distinct character forged by its maritime heritage and the enduring presence of Coffey Park, a green refuge where the neighborhood gathers under the canopy of mature trees. The economy, once dictated by the labor of the docks and the steady transit of goods through the Morris Canal Basin three miles away, has shifted into a mosaic of artisans, workshops, and repurposed warehouses that hold the weight of decades. Residents often wander toward Prospect Park Lake, two miles inland, seeking the stillness of the water as a relief from the persistent, low-frequency hum of urban activity. Every corner of the streets reveals the intersection of a working-class past and a modern, creative restlessness, creating a rhythm that feels both grounded in local history and perpetually open to the sea-bound winds.

About This Red Hook Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Red Hook, New York. Coordinates: 41.995785, -73.876511. 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 Red Hook includes the ZIP code (11231), telephone area code (718, 347), county seat of Kings County, and school district assignment (Red Hook 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.
