How to Use This Kittanning, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Kittanning occupies a deliberate bend where the Allegheny River carves a deep, serpentine path through the rugged terrain of the Appalachian Plateau. It lies 19.8 miles east of Butler, PA (from Butler, PA: bearing 99°T), and is situated 3.1 miles north of Ford City. The landscape is defined by steep, forested bluffs that rise sharply from the water’s edge, casting long, cool shadows across the valley floor as the sun dips behind the western ridges. Just a few miles away, the quiet seclusion of Graff Hollow offers a contrast to the steady, rhythmic flow of the river, while the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains anchor the horizon to the east. Residents often gather at Riverfront Park to watch the surface of the river catch the amber light of late afternoon, a time when the air feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and cooling stone.

Kittanning carries the weight of a frontier history, having once served as a significant site of intersection between indigenous paths and the encroaching industrial ambitions of the nineteenth century. The local economy was long forged in the heat of glass manufacturing and coal extraction, leaving behind a legacy of sturdy brick architecture and a downtown core that maintains a measured, deliberate pace. While the industrial pulse has softened, the presence of the nearby Crooked Creek Lake provides a necessary counterpoint to the town’s utilitarian roots, offering a space for the quietude of the natural world to reassert itself. Life here is measured in the changing character of the river, which remains the constant, silver thread tying the people of Kittanning to the land they have inhabited for generations.
