Detail, pilotis (2 level piers, ground to roof) forming arcade, corner of the east side of building looking towards the N. Grand Avenue facade; The Dorothy Chandler Pavilion is one of the halls in the Los Angeles Music Center (which is one of the three largest performing arts centers in the United States). The Music Center's other halls include the Mark Taper Forum, Ahmanson Theatre, and Walt Disney Concert Hall.
