Contractor Clarence Hudson Burrell built Don Carlos Court in 1927 at 374-386 S. Marengo Ave. in Pasadena, arranging seven stucco homes with tiled gable roofs around a central courtyard and walkway. A decorative birdbath and planter anchor the shared courtyard, a Spanish Colonial Revival take on the bungalow-court form popular in 1920s Pasadena.
