Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Columbia Heights) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Columbia Heights. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 41.4423, Longitude: -71.6381 In this case, the coordinates for Columbia Heights have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
