Pasadena Heritage offers walking home tours in the spring, some kind of event during Preservation Month (May), a three-day Craftsman Weekend in November & every other year, a party on the Colorado Street Bridge.

Bungalow Heaven offers a neighborhood home tour once a year and proceeds are used to enhance their park.

Historic Pasadena App – The “Historic Pasadena” smart phone app allows you to search for any historic resources near your current location, search for specific kinds of historic resources (such as architectural styles, works of a particular architect, etc.), and follow pre-defined mobile tours created by the City and other agencies. The app is available for both iPhone and Android devices.
