Explore Allison Park, Pennsylvania, 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 Allison Park, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Allison Park.
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.

Allison Park reveals its character through the quiet, insistent movement of Gourdhead Run as it carves a path through the dense, verdant terrain of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 3.9 miles southeast of McCandless, PA (from McCandless, PA: bearing 125°T), and is situated 8.4 miles north-northeast of Pittsburgh. The landscape here favors the deep, shadowed creases of Cold Valley, where the morning mist clings to the heavy foliage before burning off under a pale, persistent sun. Only a mile away, the quiet grounds of Willhaven Park offer a sanctuary of oak and maple, providing a stillness that contrasts with the distant, faint hum of regional life. Toward the horizon, the Allegheny Mountains exist as a jagged, atmospheric bruise against the sky, reminding the traveler that this inland expanse is defined by earth and stone rather than the openness of the plains.
History in Allison Park is written in the slow transition from agrarian roots to the steady, suburban rhythm that characterizes the modern day. The local economy relies on the industrious spirit common to this corner of the state, where the legacy of regional manufacturing lingers in the sturdy brick and utilitarian architecture of the neighborhood. Residents often look toward the nearby Duquesne Incline for a connection to the broader industrial heritage of the valley, yet the daily pulse remains tied to the local school calendars and the seasonal changes reflected in the surface of Lake Ottilie. Life here moves with a deliberate, grounded pace, sustained by a sense of place that values the steady endurance of the land over the fleeting fashions of the wider world.

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.
