Iron City sits in two buildings put up in 1929 by L.H. Pennington that spent decades in the car business and were once counted among the most modern car facilities of their time. Car dealer Steve DeMedicis drove the rebuild, and Williams Blackstock Architects joined the two buildings into a two-floor venue with three stages, two bars and a restaurant. It books touring acts most weeks and also works as a wedding and event venue. It was a Best Place to See Live Music finalist in About Town's 2026 reader poll.
