10 Universal City Plaza (10 UCP) is a 36-story, 506.0-foot (154.23 m) rhombic skyscraper in Universal City, California, near Los Angeles. It is the headquarters of Universal Filmed Entertainment Group. The tower was completed in 1984 by Hathaway Dinwiddie to a design by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and contains 820,000 square feet (76,000 square meters) of office space. It is the tallest building in the San Fernando Valley. French conglomerate Vivendi Universal sold the building to CarrAmerica Realty Corporation and Beacon Capital Partners in 2003, for $190 million. CarrAmerica have owned 80% of this building, while Vivendi and NBCUniversal owned the remainder. The building was sold to Broadway Partners in December 2006. The firm lost control of the building in March 2008 in an auction to a partnership between Normandy Real Estate Partners and Five Mile Capital Partners for $306 million after Broadway failed to service its massive debt load. On October 3, 2013, it was reported by the Los Angeles Times that NBCUniversal's parent company Comcast Corporation had purchased the building for about $420 million.
