Photograph of an aerial view of Pasadena looking east at the Hotel Green, ca.1918. The white L-shaped hotel is at the center of the photograph and shares its lot with a large number of varied trees. To the right of the hotel is a tree-filled park. Running from the middle of the left side to the middle of the top side of the image is a broad street. The other buildings in the area are mostly multiple story rectangular buildings, although the upper right corner is occupied by a residential neighborhood with a high number of trees mixed in with the houses.
