Pacific Electric, located in Los Angeles, operates as a live music venue housed within a historic building originally constructed in 1906. The structure initially served as a substation for the Pacific Electric Railway, the extensive red car system that once connected much of Southern California. Retaining much of its original industrial architecture – including exposed brick, high ceilings, and steel beams – the space was repurposed for entertainment in the early 2000s. It has since become known for hosting a variety of musical genres, prioritizing intimate concert experiences with strong acoustics. The venue's design emphasizes preserving its historical character while providing a modern setting for live performances.
