Orange Grove Court is a bungalow court located at 745 East Orange Grove Blvd. in Pasadena, California. The court, which was built in 1924, contains twelve single-family houses arranged along a central walkway. The houses were designed in the Mission Revival style and feature arched porches and windows, stucco exteriors, and tile roofs. A double arch is located at the end of the walkway, a variation on the common practice of placing another home at the end of the walkway in a bungalow court. According to its National Register of Historic Places nomination, the court "epitomizes the concept of the Southern California bungalow court" due to its layout and Mission Revival details.[2]
