Join Pasadena Heritage docents for a virtual tour of Arden Road, one of Pasadena’s newest designated landmark districts. Located at the northern edge of the Oak Knoll district, named for the multitude of giant oaks growing here when the land was settled, Arden was relatively undeveloped until the 1920s when the majority of the gracious homes that line the street were built. During this time, Pasadena was the wealthiest community of its size in the country. Many residents had made fortunes elsewhere and came to Pasadena in early retirement or to begin new ventures. A number of Pasadenaβs best known and most highly respected architects designed homes here during the 1920s and 30s. Styles include Craftsman, Mediterranean, English Tudor, and Monterey Colonial. The Arden Road Tour explores this neighborhood and its wealth of great architecture.
