About Albert S. Ried Field
Albert S. Ried Field is a sports field and play area on the north side of Adams. This field is excellent for a brief, family-friendly adventure in Western Mass. Upon arrival at the park, visitors will see a small baseball field with a long fence and short bleachers. This field becomes a perfect space for little league games on summer evenings. Overall, the property is an enjoyable place for both competitive team play and individual practice.
Families will also find a playground and swing set at the park, along with scenic views of the Berkshires toward the west. While visitors play and eat lunch at a picnic table, they can look out at the mountains beyond. When the weather cools, these hills are painted with the vibrance of fall colors.
Visitors should park on the side of Crotteau Street or Sparrow Street in a designated parking spot.
