The RSA Battle House Tower is located in Mobile, Alabama and is Alabama's tallest building.[1] The building is owned by the Retirement Systems of Alabama (RSA). It is the tallest on the Gulf Coast of the United States outside Houston[2], although not counting the antenna spire the Hancock Whitney Center in New Orleans remains taller. It replaces the Shipt Tower in Birmingham as the tallest building in Alabama and the RSA–BankTrust Building as the tallest in Mobile. The building is named for the neighboring Battle House Hotel, which is now part of the tower complex. The Battle House Hotel was restored and renovated as part of the tower project.[2]
