Telecommunications company Comporium sold eight properties on Oct. 13 to Charlotte-based AH South Carolina, Inc., according to York County land records. That entity appears to be affiliated with nonprofit hospital system Atrium Health. Both share a mailing address.
A message left for Atrium Health wasn’t immediately returned.
The former Comporium site is bounded by Dave Lyle Boulevard, Trade Street and Willowbrook Avenue. There’s a Comporium building on it now, with parking. The combined site is 4 acres.
If Atrium intends to add medical services in Rock Hill, the site would join a growing list of company projects. In December, the company confirmed plans for a $450 million hospital in Fort Mill set to open in 2029. Last week, Atrium announced a $340 million commitment to expand behavioral healthcare across the Charlotte region. It includes a new hospital in north Charlotte.
Atrium invested $6.6 billion in major projects from 2021 to last year, according to the hospital group.
