Eugenio Lopez, Jr. Communications Center

Also inside the ABS-CBN complex is the Eugenio Lopez, Jr. Communications Center (ELJCC). It is named for the late Eugenio Lopez, Jr.. It was constructed in 2000. On November 4, 2010, a date that would have been Geny Lopez' 82nd birthday, Pres. Noynoy Aquino and other Philippine politicians participated in the building's dedication ceremony. Kapamilya Film Vaults, ABS-CBN's cinema library, which the Philippine Inquirer describes as the "de facto National Archives" for cinema of the Philippines, has been located in the basement of ELJCC since 2003. Out of the estimated 8,000 films created since the birth of the Philippine cinema industry, an estimated 5,000 have been lost; of the remaining 3,000, Kapamilya holds 2,500, or 5/6 of the total.

The building is listed as an approved IT Center by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority, making export-oriented companies located therein eligible for temporary tax holiday, permanent reduced rate of corporate income tax, and other incentives. It gained this approval in February 2003; however ABS-CBN itself does not receive PEZA tax benefit from this status.
