del Vista Arroyo Pasadena California, painting in the afternoon light by American artist RD Riccoboni. Now The Richard H. Chambers U.S. Court of Appeals is an historic building originally constructed as a Spanish Colonial Revival style resort known as the Vista del Arroyo Hotel and Bungalows located at Pasadena in Los Angeles County, California. The majestic building towers over its setting and dominates the view from across the lush canyon Arroyo. Originally built as a hotel during the late stages of Pasadena's great resort hotel age, the main building was constructed in two sections--the two-story north wing, in 1920, and the six-story bell tower with flanking wings, in 1930.
