Did you know, there is a Castle in Pasadena - a Nationally Registered Historic Monument and Officially Designated Pasadena Treasure? I didn’t until a couple weeks ago. Every Saturday I walk the sidewalks of Old Town and photograph. This particular weekend I was walking by this big Victorian esk building confused what this place was. I peeked through the vines on the gate with my camera and found the wooden window ajar and vintage white curtains. The Castle Green is a hotel in Old Town, Pasadena. Castle Green has a unique exterior giving off a mystical facade. It is surrounded by a metal fence intervened by green leafy plants. This photograph pertains to the theme, “investigation”, by my curiosity in exploring this 1898 hotel I never knew was there. I have driven by the Castle so many times and never took a second look at it. This old hotel is so interesting having a piece of physical Californian history. Once opened Castle Green was the social center of Pasadena. The hotel hosted many tycoons and presidents.
