The Works The Works , also known as the Flats , was the name of a large industrial area of Coruscant . The area was located in the Dacho District , which was close to the Senate District and next to the Fobosi District . It had been an immense manufacturing center for many companies , who would later abandon the planet for cheap labor and off - world facilities . Prospective urban developers released stone mites , duracrete slugs , and conduit worms into the Works , in an attempt to clear the area out so it could be purchased and refurbished . Description . The Works was a broad , flat industrial plain sited well below the Senate District . To its far north the Works was overlooked by the Jedi Temple and the Pius Dea Spaceport , and to its south by the resiblock s and commercial towers of the Fobosi District . History . At the start of the Clone Wars , Count Dooku arrived at The Works to inform his Master , Darth Sidious , that the war between the Republic and Separatists had begun . The Dark Lord was pleased at the news , as it was a step closer to the completion of the Sith ' s Grand Plan . In 20 BBY , Sidious summoned Dooku back to The Works in response to Yoda ' s presence on Korriban . Initiating a Sith ritual using Dooku ' s blood to draw on his Force bond with his old Master and feeding it with Force lightning , they were able to draw the Jedi Grand Master into an illusion in which he , Anakin Skywalker , and a squad of clones were on their way to The Works to apprehend the Sith Lords . The intent of the deception was to break Yoda ' s spirit ; however , the attempt failed . Towards the end of the Clone Wars , Republic Intelligence working with the Jedi Order traced the Separatists back to the LiMerge Power building , a large tower in the center of The Works . Two squads infiltrated the building , Aurek Team led by Mace Windu , and Bacta Team led by Shaak Ti . It was soon verified that Count Dooku and possibly even the elusive Darth Sidious himself had used this location until recent times . Count Dooku spent much of his time in The Works mastering the teachings of the Sith . Even Darth Maul was possibly trained in The Works . The area around the LiMerge Power building was littered with a small number of destroyed combat droids , all bisected with a lightsaber . By this time The Works was an area to be avoided by most of the population , due to its usual inhabitants of smugglers , squatters , death stick runners , malfunctioning droids , gangsters , undocumented refugees , and Cthon s . 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 center for Sienar Fleet Systems TIE Fighters , producing hundreds of starfighters per day . Towards the end of the Yuuzhan Vong War , Galactic Alliance underground forces used this area as a staging ground for the eventual Battle of Yuuzhan ' tar . Behind the scenes . The Works resembles a location in the Coruscant scenes in the alternate dark side ending of " " . Note , however , that in " Jedi Knight " , the Imperial Palace appears instead of the LiMerge Power building .
