Complexo do Gasômetro, Industrial heritage site in Brás District, São Paulo, Brazil
The Complexo do Gasômetro features multiple industrial structures, including gas holders and the Casa das Retortas building along the Tamanduateí River.
The San Paulo Gas Company established this industrial complex in 1870, selecting the location near future railway lines for efficient coal transportation.
The gas plant illuminated São Paulo's streets through a network of gas lamps, marking the city's first systematic public lighting system.
Located between Rua da Figueira and Rua Maria Domitila, the complex houses operational facilities of the Comgás metropolitan energy distribution center.
The site maintains its original industrial architecture from 1870, with preserved coal distillation structures and Victorian-era engineering elements.
