It also reflects Pasadena's commercial history and the shift from horse-drawn to motorized transport. It has early links to the Rose Parade, and its brick construction and unusual plan are noted as architecturally important.","narrative":"Built in 1904 at 110 East Holly Street in Pasadena, this one-story brick livery stable has a trapezoidal floor plan shaped by the curving Santa Fe Railroad right-of-way beside it. Its 18-inch load-bearing masonry walls, wood roof trusses, original hayloft, and wide wooden barn doors under a shallow masonry arch survive. Designed around the needs of a stable rather than any particular style, it adapted a common barn plan to an awkward site. John Breiner, proprietor of the Pasadena City Market, first used it to house horses and wagons for grocery deliveries, and early Rose Parade programs mention it as a place to hitch horses and build floats. As automobiles spread, later occupants included a Red Cross thrift store during World War I and the Pasadena Spring and Bumper Company. It is valued as one of the best preserved reminders of the horse-drawn era in Southern California, and faded painted signs on the brick still record its former uses.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"John and Jean Cauzarang","architectural_style":"Not representative of any strong architectural style; design based on functional requirements of a livery stable","criteria":[],"status_note":"Occupied and used as a furniture warehouse; condition listed as fair, on its original site.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:32.12844-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/79000491.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79000491/02e256f6ed-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79000491/02e256f6ed-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Adrianne Wadewitz","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HollyStreetLivery.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Adrianne Wadewitz</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HollyStreetLivery.JPG"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"80000813","name":"Pasadena Civic Center District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/california/pasadena-civic-center-district-80000813/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123859198","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holly_Street_Livery_Stable","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14682300"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/los-angeles-county/holly-street-livery-stable-79000491/"}
