The AT&T City Center is a 30 story, 390 foot (119 m) office building located in Birmingham, Alabama. Completed in 1972, the building was originally known as the South Central Bell Building and served as the corporate headquarters for South Central Bell and its five-state operating territory.

In 1998 the building was renamed the BellSouth City Center after completing an $80 million renovation. Renovations were done by Brasfield & Gorrie. Bell South was merged into the current AT&T company in 2006, and the building's name was changed to AT&T City Center.[2] Due to consolidations in corporate structure, AT&T will move all of its employees out of the building by March of 2018[3]. This coincided with announcements to consolidated executive positions in Dallas and Los Angeles. [4]
