It's nice to see Google bringing old features back to Google Maps.

Google removed the ability to get latitude, longitude and quick directions with a right-click when it redesigned the Google Maps site. But with the redesign leaving limited release, and being pushed to everyone now, Google is slowly bringing beloved features back to the site.
On Wednesday, the Google Maps team brought back the ability to right-click on the map and request more information about the location you selected. The feature, announced in a tweet, enables you to get directions to or from the location, as well as view the latitude and longitude.
In order to view the coordinates, you'll need to select "What's here?" from the list of options when you right-click on a spot. The search bar will then populate with information regarding the location, complete with coordinates.
Put the internet to work for you.
