The short, wide adjoining Pleasure Pier to the south, also known as Newcomb Pier, was built in 1916 by Charles I. D. Looff and his son Arthur, [[Parque de atracciones|amusement park]] pioneers.<ref>{{Cita web|url=http://santamonicapier.org/wp-content/themes/sm-pier/images/history/layer-07.png|título=Archived copy|fechaacceso=January 22, 2013|urlarchivo=https://web.archive.org/web/20130420145020/http://santamonicapier.org/wp-content/themes/sm-pier/images/history/layer-07.png|fechaarchivo=April 20, 2013|urlmuerta=dead}}</ref> Attractions on the Pleasure Pier eventually included the Santa Monica Looff Hippodrome building (which now houses the current carousel and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places), the Blue Streak Racer wooden roller coaster (which was purchased from the defunct Wonderland amusement park in San Diego), the Whip, merry-go-rounds, Wurlitzer organs, and a funhouse.

The Philadelphia Toboggan Company built the Carousel, PTC #62, in 1922. It features 44 hand-carved horses. It was rebuilt in 1990 inside the Hippodrome. A [[Calíope (instrumento)|calliope]] provides musical accompaniment.

The La Monica Ballroom opened on July 23, 1924. Designed by T. S. Eslick with a Spanish façade and French Renaissance interior, it was the largest dance hall on the [[Costa Oeste de los Estados Unidos|west coast]], accommodating 5,000 dancers on its {{Convertir|15000|sqft|m2|adj=on}} [[Acer saccharum|hard maple]] floor. [[Country|Country music]] star [[Spade Cooley]] began broadcasting his weekly television show from the ballroom in 1948, where the program remained until 1954. In the summer of 1955, the Hollywood Autocade opened at the La Monica with one-hundred famous and unusual cars, including [[Jack Benny]]'s [[Maxwell (automóvil)|Maxwell]] and a [[Rumpler Tropfenwagen|Rumpler Drop Car]].<ref>{{Cita libro|título=Santa Monica Pier: A History from 1875-1990|nombre=Jeffrey|apellidos=Stanton|año=1990|editorial=Donahue Publishing Company|isbn=978-0961984915}}</ref> From 1955 until 1962, the ballroom served as a roller skating rink; first as Skater's Ballroom, and later as the Santa Monica Roller Rink, where the speed skating club won many state and regional championships and later Champion speed skater Ronnie Rains become a Roller Derby star.
