How to Use This Sparrowbush, New York Map

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

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.

About Sparrowbush, New York

Sparrowbush is a locality in Orange County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,200. The population density is 120.0 people per km². Sparrowbush is located at 41.4001°N, 74.7232°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12780.

Sparrowbush rests where the steady, dark currents of the Delaware River carve a deliberate path through the earth, marking the northern threshold of the Delaware River Gorge. It lies 15.9 miles west-southwest of Middletown, NY (from Middletown, NY: bearing 259°T), and is situated 2.3 miles northwest of Port Jervis. The air here holds a crisp, terrestrial weight, cooling rapidly as the afternoon light retreats behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. To the west, the landscape is defined by the steep, wooded rise of the land, where the City Of Port Jervis Land provides a quiet expanse of protected territory that buffers the local horizon. Two miles away, the surface of Reservoir Number Three remains a mirror for the changing seasons, its stillness contrasting with the perpetual, rhythmic flow of the river below.

Sparrowbush maintains a character forged by the intersection of industrial transit and the stubborn persistence of its rural surroundings. Historically tethered to the movement of goods through the valley, the local economy now favors a quieter pace, though the remnants of its utilitarian past are visible in the sturdy, unadorned architecture that lines the secondary roads. Residents often seek the solitude of the Peenpack Trail for an afternoon walk, or travel the seven miles toward the sound of Pinchot Falls, where the water breaks against the stone in a persistent, low-frequency hum. Even as the modern world presses in from the south, the rhythm of life in Sparrowbush remains tethered to the cycles of the forest and the slow, inexorable pull of the river toward the interior of the state.

About This Sparrowbush Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sparrowbush, New York. Coordinates: 41.400093, -74.723219. 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 Sparrowbush includes the ZIP code (12780), telephone area code (845), county seat of Orange County (Goshen), 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.
