Alabama Media Group, which publishes AL.com, plans to relocate its headquarters in Birmingham to the Denham Building in the city’s Parkside District this summer.

“We’re excited to be moving to the Denham,” said Tom Bates, president of Alabama Media Group. “It’s a great space and well-suited to how our teams work today – where we come to the office to meet and collaborate, rather than just report for duty.”

The Denham Building, at 12th Street and First Avenue South, is a short distance on the other side of the railroad tracks from AMG’s previous office at the Young & Vann building on First Avenue North.

“We also wanted to stay in the city,” Bates said. “Supporting Birmingham is important to us. And we are pleased with the new location.”

The Denham Building is named after its original architects, Denham, Van Keuren & Denham. It originally opened in 1927 as the Merchants and Manufacturer’s Terminal Building. It was built on the site of the Alice Furnaces iron rolling mill, which began operating in 1880.

The leased space will be adapted to the Alabama Media Group’s team needs and the staff will move in by late summer. Alabama Media Group has more than 100 Alabama-based journalists located throughout the state.

Besides AL.com, the state’s largest digital news site, it also includes the Lede, This is Alabama, People of Alabama and the Alabama Education Lab. It’s a Southern Thing and Reckon also will be based here. Alabama Media Group also has offices in Huntsville, Mobile, and Jackson, Mississippi.
