Pasadena Heritage to Hold 
Architectural Neighborhood 
Legacy walking Tours

On December 30th, Pasadena Heritage invites you and your 
holiday guests to take a walking tour featuring some of Pasadena’s 
architectural treasures! Special this year is the opportunity to 
participate in two different walking tours, each with a 10:30 a.m. 
or 1:30 p.m. start time.

Pasadena Hillcrest Neighborhood Walking Tour 

The Pasadena Hillcrest Neighborhood tour allows tour goers to 
discover one of Pasadena’s most beautiful neighborhoods. The 
tour explores various architectural styles such as Mediterranean, 
Victorian and Craftsman-inspired homes. The Oak Knoll 
subdivision was intended to rival the wealthy neighborhoods of 
Orange Grove and the “West Side” (San Rafael and Linda Vista), 
so many of the estate size lots were intended for custom home 
development. Showcased on the tour are several grand mansions 
along with noteworthy Craftsman homes such as the Freeman 
House designed by architects Arthur and Alfred Heineman and 
the Blacker House designed by Charles and Henry Greene.

The South Orange Grove Boulevard Tour

When the Rose Parade first began, South Orange Grove was 
a neighborhood of grand Victorian mansions, known as 
Millionaires’ Row. Today the Boulevard is distinctive for its 
concentration of luxury mid-century garden apartments, several 
of which were designed by prominent California architects. Join 
Preservation Director Jesse Lattig on this walking tour as she 
illustrates the neighborhood’s dramatic postwar transformation 
and shares stories of the stately residences that were there before.

Ticket information

Tours will be offered on Friday, December 30th. There will be two 
tour times offered for each of the walking tours - 10:30 a.m. and 
1:30 p.m. To purchase by phone, call Pasadena Heritage at (626) 
441-6333.
