Red Cross to sell estate along Pasadena’s Millionaire’s Row

Share

This Pasadena landmark is being sold by the Red Cross, which has been using the location as the headquarters of its San Gabriel Pomona Valley chapter. Inspired by a chateau outside Paris, the John S. Cravens estate was built in the late 1920s for a reported cost of $1.25 million. Steel-reinforced concrete, brick and Vermont slate were used in the construction.

The mansion has been a filming location for TV shows such as “Mad Men,” “JAG” and “Glee.” It has also been a backdrop for McDonald’s, General Motors and Nissan commercials.
