How to Use This Redmond, Washington Map

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

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.

Redmond occupies a distinctive space where the Sammamish River carves a quiet, steady path through the low-lying terrain of the Sammamish Valley. It lies 2.9 miles northwest of Sammamish, WA (from Sammamish, WA: bearing 319°T), and is situated 5.7 miles northeast of Bellevue. The air here retains a consistent, cool moisture, often softening the sharp edges of the horizon where the distant Cascade Range rises like a jagged, pale spine against the sky. Because the landscape remains firmly inland, the atmosphere feels grounded and heavy with the scent of damp earth and coniferous growth, far removed from any maritime influence. Flagpole Plaza serves as a central point of orientation, anchoring the daily movement of people amidst a topography defined by broad, green basins and the gentle presence of nearby Lake Sammamish, which glimmers two miles away as a reservoir of stillness.

Settlement in Redmond began as a slow accumulation of homesteads and timber camps, evolving from a raw wilderness into a site of early industrial ambition. The arrival of the railroad transformed the character of the settlement, shifting it from a quiet agricultural outpost into a node of resource extraction and local commerce. Over time, the influence of the land itself—the deep, fertile soil of the valley and the abundance of timber—shaped the initial growth patterns that still dictate the layout of the streets. Redmond retains the echoes of these early laborers, whose work established the foundations upon which a modern, technology-driven identity would eventually be constructed.

Redmond sustains a robust economic environment, serving as a primary hub for global software development and high-tech manufacturing that ripples outward to influence global markets. The infrastructure supports a dense network of corporate campuses, research facilities, and transit corridors that facilitate the rapid movement of ideas and capital. While the local economy is dominated by the digital sector, the presence of various satellite offices and specialized engineering firms ensures a diverse professional landscape. Educational opportunities are supported by proximity to regional institutions, providing a steady stream of talent that keeps the local industries sharp and responsive to the evolving demands of the twenty-first century.

Cultural life in Redmond moves at a measured, productive pace, punctuated by annual festivals that celebrate the harvest and the changing of the seasons. The community gathers for public events that highlight the intersection of technology and local tradition, often utilizing the open spaces near the river to host gatherings. While professional sports teams are generally based in the larger metropolitan centers nearby, the residents of Redmond maintain a strong affinity for collegiate athletics and outdoor recreation, frequently traversing the paths that connect the local landscape to the broader region. Notable figures in the fields of software innovation and engineering have long called Redmond their professional base, contributing to a reputation for quiet, intense, and consequential work that continues to shape the modern world.
