Prospect Historic District preserves an early twentieth-century residential landscape in Pasadena.
Curving streets, mature camphor trees and a range of architect-designed homes reflect the development of the Prospect Park and Arroyo Park subdivisions during the Arts and Crafts period.
Appreciate the district from public sidewalks, looking at street planting, entrance details and the varied house designs. Homes and gardens remain private unless a particular property advertises a public tour. Avoid entering driveways or obstructing residents’ access. Use current city information for any separately operated historic-house visits nearby.
