May 2015 — Downtown Minneapolis while US Bank Stadium was being built.

July 2015 — U.S. Bank Stadium, home of the Minnesota Vikings, began construction in December 2013 on the site of the former Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis. The stadium’s steel skeleton, seen here during its mid-construction phase, showcases the dramatic angular geometry that defines its final form — a nod to both Nordic shipbuilding and Minnesota’s icy winter landscapes. The project, designed by HKS Architects and constructed by Mortenson, features over 19,000 tons of structural steel and spans 1.75 million square feet. Its transparent ETFE roof panels and vast steel trusses were among the most complex structural assemblies ever attempted in a U.S. stadium build. Completed in 2016, the $1.1 billion stadium remains one of the most technically ambitious indoor venues in North America, notable for its fixed-roof design, massive glass curtain walls, and precision-engineered support cranes like the red lattice boom seen here — used to hoist the roof trusses into place during overnight construction sessions.

June 2019 — U.S. Bank Stadium in downtown Minneapolis, photographed under a clear night sky, showcases its striking angular design illuminated by the city’s glow. Opened in 2016 and designed by HKS Architects, the venue serves as the home of the Minnesota Vikings and a premier multi-purpose arena for concerts, major sporting events, and conventions. Its faceted steel and glass shell evokes the prow of a Viking ship, a nod to the team’s heritage, while its translucent ETFE roof allows natural light by day and reflects ambient light by night. This structure replaced the collapsed Metrodome and now anchors the eastern edge of the Minneapolis skyline as one of the most distinctive modern stadiums in the United States.

Completed in 2016 on the former site of the Metrodome, the $1.1 billion stadium features a fixed, translucent ETFE roof and steeply angled seating designed to evoke Nordic longhouses. The field displays the Vikings’ horned helmet logo at midfield, surrounded by vibrant purple end zones and the signature “SKOL” rally cry—a modern landmark of downtown Minneapolis and a hub for major sporting and entertainment events.

November 2019 — An illuminated “612 Burger Kitchen” sign inside U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, named after the city’s area code. The bold red-and-black typography and retro badge design reflect a blend of local identity and modern stadium branding. Located among the venue’s food and beverage concessions, 612 Burger Kitchen is part of the stadium’s effort to feature Minneapolis-based culinary offerings for fans attending Minnesota Vikings games and large-scale events.
