710/Markham District Walking Tour

Join the Pasadena Heritage for the 710/Markham District Tour, which covers portions of the Governor Markham Landmark District. One of the oldest neighborhoods in the City of Pasadena, the residences included in the District parallel Pasadena’s growth from incorporation as a city in 1886. Ninety-four percent of the homes were constructed between 1891 and 1933. This area became an official Landmark District in 2005 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012, nominated by Pasadena Heritage.The long fought battle over the 710 freeway that would have had detrimental affects on this historic district has recently been defeated. Hear the update of what is next for these once endangered buildings.
