The Works/Legends

The Works was a large industrial area of Coruscant. The area lay fairly close to the Senate District and was an immense manufacturing centre for many companies, who would later abandon the planet for cheap labour and off-world facilities.

Towards the end of the Clone War, Republic Intelligence working with the Jedi Order traced the Separatists back to the LiMerge Power building, a large tower in the centre of The Works. It was soon verified that Count Dooku and possibly even the elusive Darth Sidious himself had used this location until recent times.

Travelling through an area of the Works called the Grungeon Block, which had once housed production centres for Serv-O-Droid, Hunvicko, and Nebula Manufacturing, Mace Windu lead a team in search of Darth Sidious, rumoured to be manipulating the Galactic Senate and leading the Separatist movement from the Republic capital world itself.

By this time The Works was an area to be avoided by most of the population, due to it's usual inhabitants of smugglers, squatters, death stick runners, malfunctioning droids, gangsters, undocumented refugees, and Cthons. The majority of The Works' structures were in a severe state of decay, and had been abandoned for centuries. Despite this, many of the facilities were self-powered and continued to produce toxic waste and eerie mechanical sounds across the low-lying factories for a long time after the departure of the owners.

The same area was later used by the Galactic Empire as a manufacturing centre for Seinar Fleet Systems TIE Fighters.
