Moving along, we came across the city of Pittsfield! Pittsfield is a wonderful city nestled along the Berkshires, full of beautiful buildings, with a wonderful display of the mountains behind it. Many of the buildings in Pittsfield were very old in appearance, while still looking well kept and cared for. The high school looked like a capital building, and many other buildings throughout the city looked very official. In 1902, during a presidential visit to Pittsfield by Theodore Roosevelt, a trolly crashed into the Presidential carriage, killing one secret service agent (which was the first secret service agent ever killed on presidential detail) and injuring President Roosevelt!
