The Greene House
Backstory and Context
Text-to-speech Audio
The Greene Home was built in 1925 by the architectural firm of Greene & Greene. The Greenes, brothers Charles and Henry, designed numerous buildings in Pasadena and the surrounding areas. The home was built for real estate developer John T. Greene, who had admired some of the work of the Greenes in Pasadena.
The home is a Craftsman bungalow with some faint traces of Japanese design, a trademark style of the brothers' work in Pasadena. As John Greene was particularly fond of the Japanese quality of their roof lines, the home in Sacramento was built accordingly.
The home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
