Explore Springs, 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 Springs, 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 Springs.
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.

Springs maintains a quiet, atmospheric existence defined by the interplay between its dense woodlands and the nearby salt-tinged air. It lies 3.9 miles north-northeast of East Hampton, NY (from East Hampton, NY: bearing 20°T), and is situated 2.7 miles north-northeast of East Hampton North. The landscape unfolds toward the Atlantic Ocean, which sits only one mile away and exerts a constant, subtle influence on the local light. Pussys Pond rests directly within the borders of Springs, providing a still, reflective surface that mirrors the shifting clouds of the afternoon. A short distance away, Tanbark Creek winds through the brush, marking the terrain as it flows toward the coast. While the Appalachian Mountains remain 139 miles away, their distant presence serves only to sharpen the appreciation for the low-lying, maritime horizon here. The expanse of East Hampton Town Lands offers an open, protected corridor where the natural character of the environment remains undisturbed by the encroaching pace of the modern world.
Springs traces its origins to a rugged tradition of maritime trade and small-scale agriculture that once defined the entire eastern end of the peninsula. The local economy has evolved from these early, labor-intensive roots into a unique blend of creative pursuits and seasonal commerce. Residents often look toward the nearby saltwater resources, acknowledging a history where the harvest of the sea was as vital as the cultivation of the soil. Beyond the immediate shoreline, the proximity to The Flats provides a distinct topographic feature that has influenced how the land is utilized over the generations. The workaday life in Springs remains tethered to the rhythms of the seasons, favoring a steady, industrious pace that values long-term stability over rapid industrial expansion. This balance of land and water continues to shape the professional lives of those who choose to live and labor in this specific corner of the coast.
Springs possesses an artistic spirit that has long attracted those who find inspiration in the salt-sprayed landscape and the isolation of the surrounding woodlands. The cultural identity of the area is perhaps best recognized through its history as a sanctuary for prominent painters and writers, including the legendary abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock. Visitors often gather near the landmarks associated with these creative figures, finding that the quietude of the environment fosters a particular kind of introspection. Local events frequently center on the shared appreciation of this creative heritage, drawing people together under the open, expansive skies that define the region. Life in Springs moves with a deliberate, unhurried cadence that allows for the observation of the smallest changes in the color of the bay or the movement of the tides. Even as the world outside shifts, the character of this place remains anchored by a profound respect for the creative act and the natural world that sustains it.

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.
