Twelve separate one-story units face one another along a single central walkway. Each has stucco walls, buttressed facades and parapet roofs in the Mission Revival style. Porches are formed by an arch under a gabled tile roof carried on brackets, and the arch motif repeats above the windows and in the extension of the facades that forms an archway to the side yard. The last unit on each side is skewed toward the center, and a double arch with wooden gates spans the remaining space. Many observers regard the court as the model of the Southern California bungalow court: simple and square, built of tile and stucco, with archways and gardens. Its most notable feature is the substitution of an archway for the usual rear focal unit. It was listed as one of several Pasadena bungalow courts.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Mission Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":null,"vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:28.278144-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/83001199.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83001199/8df8f7745b-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83001199/8df8f7745b-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Brianyoungramirez","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Orange_Grove_Court.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Brianyoungramirez</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:Orange_Grove_Court.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123857573","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_Grove_Court","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14683574"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/los-angeles-county/orange-grove-court-83001199/"}
