the goodhue flagpole



i took this photo back in the spring as i was completing my epic pasadena mosaic park sign series.  this one is of a monument flag pole known as goodhue.  it is located at orange grove and colorado, quite close to the norton simon museum.

this photo ended up not being included in the aforementioned park series because it does not include a mosaic tile sign.  it does deserve to be shown on the blog as an element that makes pasadena...  well, pasadena!

I love this photo! I think it's the first one I've seen from the looking-up perspective.

One small correction, if I may: The Goodhue Flagpole is across the street from Defenders Park, which is at the southwest corner of Colorado Boulevard and Orange Grove Boulevard.

I posted a Mystery History about the Goodhue Flagpole here
