This building is located just a block away from Pasaden'a City Hall.
Unfortunately no history seems to be available online. The building seems to be an apartment building now...with some businesses on the ground floor...including the "Ols YMCA Barber Shop".
The words "YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION" is engraved in stones at the top of the building. Two cornerstones READ
"TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND FOR THE SALVATION OF MEN
YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION ERECTED 1910"
and
"RECONSTRUCTED AND ENLARGED 1926".
Year of construction: 1910
Full inscription:
Two cornerstones read "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND FOR THE SALVATION OF MEN
YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION ERECTED 1910" and "RECONSTRUCTED AND ENLARGED 1926".
