Ever wonder who’s behind Old Pasadena? 👀

We’re Old Pasadena Management - caring for, improving, and keeping the historic 22 blocks flourishing since 1999. And yes… that’s why we’re not “Old Town” anymore. 😉

This spring, we teamed up again with Pasadena Beautiful Foundation and Emina Darakjy to level up our tree planting game - bringing in bigger, healthier trees designed to thrive, not just survive. 🌳 This is how we plant bigger, healthier tree specimens to replace damaged or missing trees, instead of the standard 5-gallon saplings normally provided by the City.

19 new trees later, the district is greener, stronger, and growing right along with the community.

Your commUNITY in full bloom, we look forward to seeing you in Old Pas soon.
