SITE 1A

◣◥◣◥◣ THE HISTORY ◥◣◥◣◥ Nestled deep in the heart of Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward warehouse district on the first floor of 231 E. Buffalo st. 1a stands world-class nightlife institution, SITE 1A. Constructed in 1896, this architecturally significant, well-proportioned, and neoclassical space is listed as Tour Site #16 in the National Registry of Historic Places. The outside of the property remains untouched, but the inside of the space contains chronicles of chapters and a layer of life hidden underneath what is already there including exposed warehouse and industrial elements reminiscent of european dance music roots. SITE 1A is a natural extension of the evolution within this property, and has been carefully assembled by people who know nightlife inside and out for people who go out. SITE 1A was built by Milwaukee, for Milwaukee. ◣◥◣◥◣ THE AESTHETICS ◥◣◥◣◥ SITE 1A features a multi-purposed and faceted, industrial-influenced design that bridges the gap between the underground and mainstream without taking away from the elegance and beaux arts features of the space; essentially meeting in the middle of upscale lounge and a live music venue. The details are remarkably fine and include yellow brick piers, egg-and-dart moldings, neoclassical scrolls, and heavy timber post and industrial beams. Notable venue characteristics include a hand-fabricated steel DJ booth which meets precise main-stage festival grade standards, 750 sq/ft of LED paneling tactfully draped from the 18ft ceilings, and a custom build Beyma Audio sound system which rivals the biggest venue brands on the planet. Notable Artists: Kaskade, Paul Oakenfold, Claude Von Stroke, Zeds Dead, Markus Schulz, Crystal Method, Shiba San, Party Favor, Green Velvet, Savoy, Ephwurd, Downlink, Dieselboy, Hudson Mohawke, Breathe Carolina, Calyx & Teebee, Morgan Page, SNBRN, Wax Motif, Wolfgang Gartner, Cosmic Gate, Audien, Joyryde, Darude, Green Lantern, Grandtheft, Gabriel & Dresden, KiNK, and more...
