One AT&T Center (formerly One SBC Center and, originally, One Bell Center) is a 44-story building in Downtown St. Louis, Missouri that is Missouri's largest building by area with 1,400,000 square feet (130,000 m²).[2]
The building was built to replace the Southwestern Bell Building as the Southwestern Bell world headquarters. However, in a series of mergers the headquarters was to move to San Antonio, Texas and renamed itself for AT&T.
There is still a sizeable work force in St. Louis with the entire AT&T Center solely occupied by AT&T. 4,800 AT&T employees work in the building.
In 2006 Inland American Real Estate Trust, a subsidiary of the Inland Real Estate Group in Chicago bought the building for $205 million. AT&T then signed a 10-year lease to be the sole tenant.[3]
