The Minnesota Vikings new HQ and practice facility are coming along nicely, and the team released a video showing the progress of the TCO Performance Center.

When the Minnesota Vikings purchased the former Northwest Airlines headquarters property in Eagan, Minnesota, the clock started ticking on the headquarters in Winter Park and practice facility in Mankato.

The large property will serve as the hub for Minnesota Vikings activity, housing not only the place for the team’s executives to work, but a medical facility, conditioning center, media area, and multiple practice fields with locker room facilities.

Yesterday, the Vikings shared a look at how the new facility was coming along on their official website, also delivering this tease on Twitter:

It is surprising how quickly work is being done on the facility. Seeing the photos go by in the video shows just how quickly and efficiently construction is being done. It seems like the building popped up out of nowhere when it came to October’s images, since it went from a prepared lot to an actual building.

This doesn’t mean that the team will hurry to get its operations into the building. Even though construction on the Eagan facility is coming along at a great rate, the Minnesota Vikings will likely continue to use the Winter Park and Mankato properties until they are completely ready to move in.

Here is a reminder of what will be offered at the Twin City Orthopedics Performance Center for the Minnesota Vikings:

It is fantastic to see great things happening for the Minnesota Vikings. Not only is their football team looking good, but they are playing in a new stadium and have another state of the art facility being created for them while they battle during the 2016 NFL season.
