The HealthSouth corporate headquarters on U. S. Highway 280 in Birmingham was constructed in 1997 for the then-fast growing outpatient and rehabilitation services company chaired by Richard Scrushy. The $38 million facility occupies 200,000 square feet on a 104-acre site that also includes the unfinished HealthSouth digital hospital.
The architect for the project was Birmingham's CLJ Associates, Inc, though Scrushy himself was actively involved in the design. The campus included an office tower with a private elevator for executives, a trophy room for Scrushy's awards and souvenirs, and a company store. It also housed the Richard M. Scrushy Conference Center (now known as the Cahaba Grand Conference Center) with meeting and event facilities.
The entire campus, with the headquarters, conference center, and unfinished hospital was under contract to be sold to the Dallas-based Trammell Crow Company in June 2007 for $60 million, however, Trammell Crow backed out of the deal weeks later. In January 2008, the complex was sold to the Daniel Corporation for $43.5 million. A hotel and new office building are on the drawing board, and the hospital site is being marketed towards military or private hospital development. In March, Daniel announced that after they close on the deal, the Riverpoint building on the campus would be sold to Nexity Bank to serve as the bank's headquarters and operations.
