How to Use This Crescent, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Crescent, Pennsylvania

Crescent is a locality in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,800. The population density is 280.0 people per km². Crescent is located at 40.5573°N, 80.2293°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 15046.

Crescent maintains a steady, deliberate presence upon the topography of the Allegheny Plateau, where the land rises in quiet, forested ridges and descends into shaded, narrow ravines. It lies 2.7 miles north-northwest of Carnot-Moon, PA (from Carnot-Moon, PA: bearing 347°T), and is situated 7.6 miles west-southwest of Franklin Park. Shouse Run carves a persistent path through the local terrain, its waters moving with a rhythmic, low-slung energy that defines the drainage of the immediate landscape. Beyond the immediate tree line, the geography feels expansive and grounded, marked by the dense, deciduous woodlands that turn a deep, burnished copper when the autumn light hits the canopy. Sautter Park serves as the primary clearing of human design, providing a stillness that complements the natural, unadorned character of the surrounding acreage.

Crescent bears the marks of a regional economy long tethered to the industrious spirit of western Pennsylvania, where the echoes of manufacturing and the movement of goods remain etched into the local identity. While the heavy industry that once defined the river-bound corridors of the region has shifted, the infrastructure of the past persists in the sturdy, utilitarian architecture of the neighborhood homes and the lingering, quiet pride of its residents. The proximity to Fern Hollow and the distant, cooling reach of Ambridge Reservoir suggest a landscape shaped by water and slow geological patience rather than the frantic pace of modern centers. Life here moves with a measured, intentional cadence, favoring the permanence of the earth and the simple, reliable patterns of a day that begins with the mist lifting off the ground and ends with the long, cooling shadows of the plateau.
