Apartments for Rent in Pittsfield, MA(141 Rentals)

Long before beautiful apartments in Pittsfield became a reality, it served as the land of the Mahican tribe until the early 1700s. After that, Colonel Jacob Wendell purchased much of the land that is now the gorgeous cityscape in 1738. Then, the village started to expand, becoming an incorporated township less than 25 years later. The region was largely developed as an agricultural area, as the brooks made it easy for lumber mills to set up shop. Woolen manufacturers joined the fray in 1807 as settlers brought in flocks of Merino sheep. By the early 1900s, the landscape had largely changed, becoming the metropolis that is known and loved today.
