Bungalow Heaven
Bungalow Heaven is a locally designated landmark district in northeast Pasadena, set apart from the civic grouping around City Hall. It is known for a concentrated stock of early-20th-century bungalows, many from the Arts and Crafts period — a different housing story than Pasadena’s commercial corridors or later hillside streets.
