Film Center Building, Art Deco office building in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, US

The Film Center Building spans 13 stories on Ninth Avenue, featuring brown brick facades with marble accents and geometric patterns at the entrance.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer occupied half of the office space when the building opened in January 1929, marking a period of film industry concentration around Times Square.

The building's lobby incorporates three-dimensional theater-related decorations, a multicolored floor, and plaster ceiling details reflecting entertainment industry themes.

Located between 44th and 45th Streets, the structure occupies 18,000 square feet with 200 feet along Ninth Avenue and 90 feet on each side street.

The building maintains its original purpose by housing media companies and creative organizations, with former film vaults converted into modern office spaces.
