Constellation Place is a 35-story, skyscraper in Los Angeles, California, located in the community of Century City. It houses the headquarters of Houlihan Lokey, ICM Partners, Knight Law Group, and International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC). The tower was built to house the corporate headquarters of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), but after its bankruptcy, MGM moved to Beverly Hills, California in 2011. History Constellation Place was constructed from 2001 to 2003. It is the 26th-tallest building in Los Angeles, and the fifth-tallest in Century City. It was the first high-rise to be completed in the 21st century in Los Angeles. The building was designed by Johnson Fain Partners, and has of Class A office space. In 2000, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) announced that it was moving its headquarters to a newly constructed building in Century City. Halfway through the design building process, MGM agreed to be the lead tenant. The building opened in 2003 as the MGM Tower. Alex Yemenidjian, a former chairperson and chief executive of MGM, devised the headquarters space. Roger Vincent and Claudia Eller of the Los Angeles Times said that "Yemenidjian spared no expense in building out the studio's space with such Las Vegas-style flourishes as towering marble pillars and a grand spiral staircase lined with a wall of awards." Scott Johnson, the architect, designed the bottom third of the tower to have extra-large floors so MGM executives could have outdoor decks. The marble used in the MGM spaces was imported from Italy. MGM received a dedicated private garage, a dedicated security checkpoint, and a dedicated elevator bank. That way, celebrities who visited the complex could enter and exit the building without entering public spaces. Three screening rooms were placed in the tower. One of them was a 100-seat theater on the ground floor. As of December 2010 ICM Partners controls the theater. The 14th floor lobby housed the executive suites and a wall of Oscar statuettes for Academy Award-winning films. The street that leads to the building's garage was renamed MGM Drive. A large MGM logo was placed at the top of the building. In December 2010 MGM rented of space in the MGM Tower, and it paid nearly $5 per square foot per month in rent. In 2010, as MGM emerged from bankruptcy protection, it announced that it would move its headquarters to neighboring Beverly Hills to save money. The lease in Century City was scheduled to expire in
