Rose Court

Style: Spanish Colonial Revival
City: Los Angeles, CA

Architectural firm Stewart, Young & Stewart designed Rose Court, built from 1921 to 1922 at 449-457 S. Hudson Ave. in Pasadena. Its half-court arrangement gathers three buildings and five residential units alongside a driveway, finished in a simplified Mission Revival style with stucco walls, arched porches, and broken parapets.

the building

Half-court layout. Unlike a full bungalow court centered on a walkway, Rose Court's three buildings and five units sit alongside a driveway in a half-court arrangement, a compact variant of the type.

the style

The court reads as a simplified interpretation of Mission Revival architecture -- stucco walls, arched porches, and broken parapets along the roofline, without the more elaborate ornament seen on grander Mission Revival buildings.

significance

Added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 11, 1983.
