Arroyo Seco Real Estate

The tranquil 132-acre Arroyo Seco area of Pasadena is home to some of the city’s most treasured landmarks. The renowned Rose Bowl Stadium was built in 1922. Designed by noted architect Myron Hunt, the stadium seats 92,542. On Arroyo Blvd., after crossing under the historic Colorado Street Bridge, the Richard H. Chambers U.S. Court of Appeals comes into view. The court is housed in what was originally the Vista del Arroyo Hotel. Built in1903, the Vista del Arroyo was used as a military hospital during World War II. In the 1980s the federal government restored the building for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. A little further up is La Casita del Arroyo Clubhouse. Built in 1933 this "little house" was constructed of stone found within the Arroyo Seco.
