How to remove a pin in Maps?
It is not possible to remove a pin in Maps once it is placed. There is no option in the drop down menu in the menu bar.

Unfortunately that does not apply to Maps for OS Sonoma. I’ve searched around and nada.
You have to first click on the pin to open it, then scroll down the pin until you see Remove. It does work on Sonoma just as Barney says it does.

Try > Control (right) click on it in the sidebar list > then click Delete.
Click on it, scroll down to the bottom of the window that pops up and click Remove.
OK case solved.
That is not a removable pin. It seems to be a feature on Maps map that looks like an added pin. I've even updated to macOS Sequoia 15.0 and that didn't change. But if I add a pin after that then it will show the option to remove

Look closely at what you have there. You searched for that location and Siri created a "suggestion." Those do not have the Remove option at the bottom of the popup. You should be able to delete it from the sidebar as den.thed noted. The pin won't go away until you click somewhere else on the map.

After you have removed the item from Recents.
Try moving to a different location, then back.
If that doesn't help, quit and re-open Maps.

Just did it when I verified it for the post.
Perhaps another way to try
On the Drop Pin in Maps
Top Menu >> Edit >> Remove Pin
Tested on Sonoma 14.6.1
I did just that on my original post. There is no Remove Pin option. Please look at the print.
Just would like to add that my macOS Sonoma version is 14.6.1 as well.

That option does not appear for me. That is all that it is in the pop-up window.
