Property Overview

Frequently referred to as "The Carnegie Hall of the West," this 45,000-square-foot building with a 1,200-seat concert hall is situated in Pasadena's historic West Pasadena neighborhood. Since 2004, Harvest Rock Church has owned and operated the venue, hosting a wide array of community events, including performances by regional symphony orchestras, school graduations, community awards, dance companies, corporate presentations, and a variety of other fine arts events. The Ambassador Auditorium offers a unique opportunity to own a significant piece of Pasadena's history and a chance to support ongoing community initiatives in this cherished entertainment space.Constructed in 1974 by the architectural firm Daniel, Mann, Johnson and Mendenhall (DMJM), the Ambassador Auditorium exemplifies mid-century design and has been meticulously preserved to maintain its historic integrity.

FAQ

How do I add a non-forward facing team member such as a broker coordinator or broker aide to a listing in order to ensure they get notifications on the property?
Please email our support team at [email protected] and they will add the team member.
How do I access a private listing?
Please contact the broker directly with the information provided on the listing. Once the broker approves your credentials he will make the information public to you.
How can I contact the broker
We strongly encourage to message the broker through our portal by clicking on the “Envelope” icon next to the brokers photo on the property page. We’ve found brokers response time is much quicker via our messaging portal than phone as brokers are always on the go.
What is the difference between Tier 1 & Tier 2 in the Due Diligence Vault?
Documents that are placed in a Tier-1 Due Diligence vault require the execution of a Confidentiality Agreement (“CA”) for access. Documents and folders placed in the Tier-2 vault are intended to have an added layer of security and require the execution of a CA in addition to required Broker approval for access.
