Explore Glenfield, 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 Glenfield, 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 Glenfield.
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.

Glenfield holds the quiet weight of the Allegheny Plateau, where the earth rises in sturdy, forested inclines that hold the morning mist until long after the sun has climbed. It lies 4.6 miles east of Carnot-Moon, PA (from Carnot-Moon, PA: bearing 90°T), and is situated 8.9 miles northwest of Pittsburgh. Kilbuck Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the local topography, its waters moving with a deliberate, low-voiced urgency toward the wider regional river systems that define the greater basin. Memorial Park provides a green respite from the encroaching canopy, offering a patch of managed land where the air feels thin and sharp, particularly as the season shifts toward the gray, biting cold common to this inland corridor. To the distant horizon, the Allegheny Mountains cast a jagged, violet shadow against the dusk, a reminder of the vast, folded landscape that stretches between here and the far reaches of the state.
Industry and time have shaped the character of Glenfield, leaving behind the remnants of a legacy rooted in the heavy, iron-willed labor that once powered the neighboring river valleys. While the economy has softened from its earlier, industrial intensity, the rhythm of daily life remains tethered to the industrious spirit of the past, with residents moving through the neighborhood with a steady, unadorned purpose. The local landscape remains defined by the deep, wooded creases of the earth, such as the quiet depth of Fern Hollow, which sits a short distance away as a testament to the slow, persistent erosion of the plateau. On quiet evenings, the atmosphere feels heavy with the memory of the forge and the furnace, even as the modern world persists in the hum of traffic and the steady, unsentimental progression of the seasons.

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.
