About this map

Pittsfield serves as the urban anchor for this Berkshire county landscape, where the industrialized Housatonic River valley meets the rising topography of the surrounding hill towns. The map reveals a mid-century period of suburban expansion with clusters like Lakeview Terrace and Lakewood filling in the spaces between the city and Lanesboro. Public utilities and water management dominate the south and east, represented by the expansive Pittsfield Washington Watershed Area and numerous high-elevation water bodies including Ashley Lake and Farnham Reservoir.
