Westgate was a suburban line operated by the Pacific Electric Railway from 1911 to 1940. This line was one of four lines connecting Downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica that did not run through Hollywood. The line is notable for taking a circuitous route towards its end along San Vicente Boulevard mainly because it was built to encourage construction of new homes near Pacific Palisades.
