In 1876, nearby landowners opened up the first section of a street that would later extend from Colorado to Del Mar - Terrace Drive. Several prominent Pasadena residents soon built Victorian homes on the crest of the hill overlooking Terrace Drive.In the 1890s, South Orange Grove Avenue began to attract wealthy residents from the east, and later became nationally known as Millionaires Row.” Earlier homes on the avenue were being replaced by larger mansions and gardens, and the original environment west of Terrace Drive would be transformed as well.
