Hotel Green, 1900.

The Hotel Green, built in 1903 in Pasadena, California was home to both the Tournament of Roses and the Valley Hunt Club. The hotel was built by George Gill Green. By 1924 the hotel was owned by a group of investors who divided the hotel complex into three parts. The Central Annex was subdivided into fifty condominiums and renamed the Castle Green. The Castle Green is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the State Historic Register, and the City of Pasadena's list of Historic Places.

[edit] Trivia

  • Parts of it are rented out for social functions and filming locations for such films as The Puppet Master (1989 film) and The Time Machine (2002 film).
  • The Hotel used to have a pedestrian bridge over Raymond Avenue to reach another wing of the hotel. That wing however, was later razed to 2 stories and was sold as business space.
