Explore by Foot - Bungalow Heaven

On the task list for Monday - a visit to Bungalow Heaven, Pasadena’s Historic Landmark District containing over 800 homes built from 1900 to he 1930s. The area represents the first residential community established in Pasadena, itself founded justt 31 years earlier in 1875.

The Bungalow Heaven Homeowners Association conducts an annual April home tour event where visitors can tour the interiors of selected homes. This year, of course, it was not possible. Still, an exterior walking tour is a nice way to appreciate the architecture and the spring landscape very much in bloom.

My walk covered a third of the area and I plan to return again. Images of what caught my eye yesterday are shown in the gallery below. As the sun shone rather brightly, most of the home images were on the west side of the streets :)

Finally, this wild cottage garden caught my eye and I crossed the street just to get closer.
