2021 Map of Pittsfield East

About this map

The Housatonic River and its East Branch anchor the industrial and natural landscape of the Berkshires, winding through a valley defined by the Housatonic RR and the rugged topography of Washington Mtn. This eastern section of Pittsfield reveals a dense network of neighborhoods like Lakewood, Coltsville, and Pontoosuc Gardens, alongside the significant rail junction at Adams Junction. The map captures the interface between the urban core and the high ridges to the east, where the Appalachian National Scenic Trail traverses heights such as Warner Hill and Day Mtn. Local genealogy is well-supported by numerous burial sites, including Main Street Cemetery and Saint Patricks Cem, while the region's managed water resources are evident in the series of reservoirs like Lower Sackett Reservoir and Ashley Lake.
