The practice facility set to become the new every day home of the Las Vegas franchise officially broke ground on October 5th and the expected completion date is sometime in August.

Located in Downtown Summerlin the facility will have all team offices, two full size sheets of ice, a team store, and a restaurant that overlooks the entire thing. Vegas Helicam has been documenting the progress of the facility using some sweet technology in which they fly a drone over the site and capture slow motion videos and high resolution pictures.

In the video below you can see the layout of the sheets of ice and you can really get a feel for the sheer magnitude of the facility. Pretty cool stuff.

Here are some stills they took as well.

Stick tap to the guys over at Vegas Helicam for letting us use their stuff. Check out their website, VegasHelicam.us.

They plan on continuing documenting the progress of the facility, and we’ll keep posting their stuff. Please, do me a favor, if you ever have a need for aerial footage of a property (like if you are selling your house), use them, it makes us look WAY less like mooches if they get some business from our mooching.
