Popular West Hollywood disco opened in 1974 by Scott Forbes located at 652 N. LaPeer. It is still open today but under the name The Factory. Studio One started out as the idea of a Beverly Hills optomerist originally from Boston named Scott Forbes. Forbes asked notable Los Angeles gay celebrity Lee Glaze how he had managed to turn around the ailing Ciro's nightclub in 1970 by hosting gay nights. Glaze gave Forbes his mailing list and Forbes used it to help make Studio One an overnight success. Forbes became a millionaire quickly and moved on to become a power player on L.A.'s political scene. The club suffered noteriety by 1976 when its became noted that it excluded gay men of color and all women.
