  The Regions-Harbert Plaza is a 32-story, 437-foot-tall (133 m) office building in Birmingham, Alabama. Originally known as the AmSouth-Harbert Plaza, it was renamed on July 13, 2007, after AmSouth Bancorporation - the building's largest tenant - merged with Birmingham-based Regions Financial Corporation. Today, the 200,000 square feet (19,000 $m^2)$ that Regions leases makes it the building's largest tenant.
  
  ## History
  
  Designed by the architectural firm Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum, the Plaza was built in 1989 by general contractor Brasfield & Gorrie as a multi-tenant office building for Harbert Corporation. Harbert owned the building until 2008, when the Harbert family sold it.
  
  The building's base has a 70,000-square-foot (6,500 $m^2)$ retail center and its foundation can accommodate a 8-story tower above the retail area. The building also connects to the adjacent Regions Center through the mezzanine level.
  
  ## Tenants
  
  Major tenants include Regions Financial Corporation; law firms Balch & Bingham, Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis, LLP and Maynard Cooper & Gale; an IT Professional Services Firm Insight Global, the accounting firm Ernst & Young and Northwestern Mutual. The 31st and 32nd floors contain the private City Club of Birmingham.
