How to Use This Lincoln, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Lincoln emerges from the dense, verdant canopy of Dead Man's Hollow, a place where the earth seems to hold its breath under the weight of thick, humid air and the quiet persistence of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 2.1 miles south-southeast of McKeesport, PA (from McKeesport, PA: bearing 166°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east of Bethel Park. The landscape is defined by a rugged topography, where the ground gives way to the deep, shadowed creases of Boston Hollow and the persistent, narrow flow of Long Run carving through the limestone floor just a mile distant. Far to the west, the jagged silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains marks the horizon in a hazy, indigo stroke, serving as a reminder of the vast, inland expanse that stretches toward the interior of the continent. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, metallic violet, catching the edges of the hardwoods and illuminating the damp, moss-covered shale that characterizes the terrain of the hollow.

Lincoln maintains a character shaped by the heavy industry and grit that defined the regional economy for generations, leaving behind a legacy of abandoned iron furnaces and the quiet, iron-rich dust of a former era. Life moves with a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the memory of the mills that once banked their fires along the rivers of the neighboring valleys. While the industrial pulse has slowed, the presence of Butlers Lake, four miles away, offers a brief, stillness-filled respite from the rigid geometry of the older, brick-fronted streets. The people who remain here carry an awareness of the land’s transformation, watching as the forest slowly reclaims the slag heaps and the rusted infrastructure of a harder time.

About This Lincoln Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lincoln, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.291407, -79.859919. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Lincoln includes the ZIP code (17522, 15133), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), and school district assignment (South Allegheny School District).

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.
