1959 Map of Pittsfield West

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Pittsfield serves as the eastern anchor of this Berkshire County landscape, where urban density gives way to the ridges of the Taconic Range. The 1959 revision of this area captures the city during a period of mid-century infrastructure growth, evidenced by the Pittsfield Airport and the Branch Substation near the New York Central rail line. To the west, the map documents the religious and communal heritage of the region at Shaker Village and the City Farm, while the recreation-heavy shoreline of Onota Lake and Richmond Pond shows a clear transition from industrial center to seasonal retreat.
