Explore Westport, 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 Westport, 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 Westport.
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.

Westport occupies a deliberate space where the land yields to the expansive, glass-still surface of Lake Champlain. It lies 26.0 miles east of North Elba, NY (from North Elba, NY: bearing 99°T), and is situated 9.1 miles west of Vergennes. Hoisington Brook carves a path through the terrain, its persistent, clear current cutting toward the water and defining the drainage of the immediate landscape. The air here holds a crisp, northern clarity, carrying the scent of damp earth and pine needles from the interior woodlands. Within the protected borders of Lee Park Lands, the ground rises in subtle, uneven elevations that suggest the distant, hazy silhouette of the Adirondack Mountains on the western horizon. During the late afternoon, the light turns a bruised, autumnal gold, illuminating the texture of the fields and casting long, thin shadows that stretch toward the water’s edge.
Westport preserves a quiet industriousness, rooted in a history of regional transit and the steady maintenance of its inland borders. The local economy persists as a blend of seasonal stewardship and the rhythms of those who manage the surrounding tracts, far removed from the frantic pace of denser urban centers. While Pleasant Valley lies to the west, the primary character of the locality remains tied to the interplay between the forest and the lakefront, where the remnants of earlier agricultural efforts still mark the perimeter of the woods. Life in Westport moves with a measured, deliberate gait, defined by the seasonal turn of the deciduous trees and the maintenance of the infrastructure that keeps the region connected to the wider interior. Visitors often find that the stillness of the afternoon allows for a rare, undistracted observation of the natural world, undisturbed by the noise of the modern thoroughfare.

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.
