History

One Triad Park was completed in 1987 at a cost of $24 million. Aetna Life Insurance Co. bought the building in 1991 for $10.1 million after foreclosure when previous owners could not pay a $26 million loan.[5]

In the early 1990s, Southern National Bank was expanding and, although the headquarters stayed in Lumberton, North Carolina, the bank moved some operations to Winston-Salem. One Triad Park had {{convert|74,000|sqft|m2}} of space Southern National could move into immediately.[3] In 1993, with Southern National taking {{convert|80,000|sqft|m2}} on eight floors, the building's name changed to Southern National Financial Center on May 3.[4]

On August 1, 1994, BB&T and Southern National announced a "merger of equals". The merged bank would be called BB&T, though at first, the holding company remained Southern National.[5] The headquarters became BB&T Financial Center.[6] Southern National Corp. changed its name to BB&T Corp. in May 1997.[7] Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice was another major tenant.[8]

Parkway Properties Inc. of Jackson, Mississippi bought the building in 1996 for $25.5 million. Parkway sold the building to Cabot Investment Properties for $27 million in August 2003. Parkway Realty Services, a Parkway subsidiary, continued to manage the building. BB&T had {{convert|201006|sqft|m2}} as of 2002, and the Class A building was 97.5 percent occupied.[9]

In December 2011, Inland Private Capital Corp. of Oak Brook, Illinois bought BB&T Financial Center for $34.1 million. BB&T occupied 94 percent of the building, still considered Class A.[2]

In late 2014, investors bought BB&T Financial Center for $60 million, the most anyone ever paid per square foot for office space in the city.[10]
