Ann Erdman is the Public Information Officer for the City of Pasadena, California. You can also find her on Facebook and Twitter.
It looks like they're clearing land for something big. PCC or CalTech perhaps?
I think it's the beginnings of the 210 freeway.
They're starting work building The Hotel Green.
Prospect Park?
Rose Bowl
My guess (and it is a guess) is that it the initial clearing of land for the Green Hotel on Raymond street. The view is looking East Northeast.
My guess (and it's a guess) is they're clearing land for the new public library building at Walnut and Garfield. It could be Hotel Green, but I think there was more already developed in that area by the time the hotel was being built. Paul
How about construction of Pasadena High School?
The PIO warned us the ez mystery pics wood soon be over. If anyone gets this, he (she??) will be only one.I'll only say it could be a brunch of things. But, I think it's about something happening in the 1930's. Maybe even the 20s!
Hey Ann:They're building the new plunge at Brookside!Mike
That is a steam shovel churning the earth in preparation for Pasadena City Hall, I believe the picture is in 1926.
