Explore Verplanck, 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 Verplanck, 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 Verplanck.
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.

Verplanck occupies a singular reach of land where the earth yields to the quiet, brackish tides of Greens Cove. It lies 2.1 miles northeast of Stony Point, NY (from Stony Point, NY: bearing 41°T), and is situated 8.0 miles northwest of Ossining. The landscape is defined by a low, sturdy topography that feels shaped by the persistent pull of the nearby Hudson River, a mile to the east, which carries the weight of the mainland toward the sea. Within the boundaries of TOWN OF CORTLANDT Land, the terrain offers a serene stillness, punctuated by the small, reflective surface of Lake Meahagh. In the distance, the faint, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains frame the horizon, while the local air holds a cool, moisture-laden quality that seems to linger over the reeds and the quiet shoreline.
Verplanck carries the weight of an industrial heritage, having once served as a vital center for brickmaking that pulled the very foundations of the earth into the kilns of commerce. The economy has long since shifted from those heavy, kiln-fired days, yet the character of the place remains marked by its working-class roots and a stubborn independence. Beyond the immediate banks, the proximity of Georges Island offers a reminder of the shifting currents that have defined the local experience for generations. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a place that knows its own borders, a quietude that persists even as the modern world hums just out of sight, leaving the residents to find their rhythm in the intersection of land and water.

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.
