  • This is the former Regions Bank headquarters. Since the merger with Amsouth Bancorp, the headquarters has been moved across 20th Street to the former Amsouth-Harbert Plaza/Sonat tower. This building is no longer owned by Regions Bank, and once transition of all corporate employees is completed, the tower will be transformed into a Renaissance Hotel.
  • This property was acquired by a real estate development and investment company based out of Flint Michigan. It was temporaily home to FEMA during the Alabama Tornado recovery. It is currently being converted into the headquarters for VIVA Health. Viva Health is the health insurance arm of the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Plans for a hotel at this site appear dead. The facility will likely become home to additional UAB related back office functions. This building is undergoing a rapid and robust turnaround, a great sign of vitality and growth for the CBD of Birmingham Alabama.
