Description
Photograph of the external view of the Green Hotel as seen from a nearby park, Pasadena, ca.1905-1910. Overlooking an immaculately decorated and well maintained courtyard is the seven-story hotel. The hotel has two Moorish-style turrets and two dome capped towers. All of the turrets and towers have a flagpole (or lightning rod?) extending from its peaks. A majority of the windows in the building are square shaped while only a handful is arched shaped. Several smaller buildings and houses are nearby. Trees and palms decorate the courtyard. The courtyard (park?) has a beautiful pond decorated with flowers and plants.
