*A note on the Historic Blinn House: The home was built for Edmund Blinn, an Oak Park , IL native who moved to California and made a fortune in the lumber business. In 1905 Blinn hired popular Chicago architect, George Washington Maher, to design his California home in the Midwestern Prairie School Style. The result was a stunning home featuring a wisteria vine motif throughout. This is particularly evident in the Tiffany-inspired windows, the fireplace mosaic and the stained glass of the broken arch windows.

The Blinn House was designated a Pasadena Cultural Heritage Landmark in 1977. It has been home to the Women’s City Club since 1945 and continues to serve the Pasadena community as a meeting place for civic, cultural, and educational activities. It was recently placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
