I was looking at a Map of California which I downloaded from David Rumsey Maps ... and the detail of Pasadena caught my eyes ... I did a search on Google and came across a good website from Water and Power Associates that has records of the very first house built in Pasadena ... "recorded history from scratch" ... and it goes on to show many photos including the Rose Bowl, the City Center etc., ... I am posting this thread to share with Forum Members ... I am also attaching some photos ... there are a lot of photos there and I downloaded the webpage as a PDF 122MB size ... the history of Southern California was as a desert before the transformation into a bread basket for the world ... there is Civil War participation also with the Confederates hiding out in Catalina Islands ... Enjoy the post ...
