How to Use This Fox Point, Wisconsin Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Fox Point, Wisconsin. 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 Wisconsin 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 Fox Point.

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.

Fox Point occupies a quiet expanse of land defined by the expansive, shifting presence of Lake Michigan along its eastern edge. It lies 2.3 miles northeast of Glendale, WI (from Glendale, WI: bearing 48°T), and is situated 8.2 miles north of Milwaukee. The terrain around Fox Point unfolds in subtle, glacial contours that catch the low, slanted light of late autumn afternoons. Moisture hangs in the air near the banks of Indian Creek, a narrow ribbon of water that carves a modest path through the local topography. Beyond the immediate canopy of trees, the land remains largely flat, stretching toward the horizon where the distant rise of Holy Hill marks the edge of the regional vista. Residents often find solace in the quiet maintenance of the Bridge Lane Ravine Bridge, a place where the stillness of the woods feels almost tangible against the sky.

Fox Point emerged from a landscape once dominated by agricultural plots and the gradual encroachment of suburban growth. The local economy thrives today as a residential enclave, sustained by professional sectors that ripple outward from the nearby metropolitan center. While the region retains the echoes of its early development, the daily industry is now defined by the rhythm of commuters and the quiet service of local commerce. Prosperity here is measured in the maintenance of wide, wooded lots and the preservation of a deliberate, steady pace of life. Even the distant activity of the Milwaukee Municipal Mooring Basin serves as a reminder of the industrial heritage that once linked these inland plains to broader networks of trade.

Fox Point carries a character defined by its architecture and the deliberate privacy of its shaded, winding roads. Notable landmarks here are often hidden behind thick stands of mature trees, allowing the natural landscape to hold the primary focus of the neighborhood. The cultural life of the area is quiet and unhurried, favoring the privacy of home and the changing colors of the seasons over large public spectacles. Individuals like the celebrated journalist and author George F. Will have roots in the broader region, reflecting the intellectual and professional tenure often found among the residents. Community gatherings remain understated, rooted in the shared appreciation for the woodland corridors that connect the quiet lives of those who inhabit these spaces.
