About this Event

The Old Pasadena Walking Tour North

This month’s Old Pasadena Walking Tour will include the northern section of Old Pasadena, beginning at Memorial Park and walking south through several historic alleyways. This tour features the ruins of Pasadena’s second library, a historic theatre that is now readapted as condominiums, and perhaps one of the most controversial preservation stories regarding an entire block that was saved.

Old Pasadena is a shopping and dining destination, but without Pasadena Heritage, this National Register Historic District would have been destroyed! Now it is one of the finest examples of downtown revitalizations in the country. One of our trained docents will lead you through the historic district and reveal its many hidden and unusual architectural details, old alleyways, and historic signs.

The tour is approximately 1.5 hours and covers approximately 1.5 miles.
