The Houston Texans have officially announced plans for a massive new global headquarters and state-of-the-art training facility in Bridgeland, Texas, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The project, titled the "Toro District," is an 83-acre mixed-use sports and entertainment development located in Northwest Harris County. The site will feature a 22-acre complex dedicated to the team’s daily operations, effectively moving their practice facility and headquarters away from the NRG Park area. The development is a landmark public-private partnership between the Texans, Harris County, and Howard Hughes Communities.
Texans Chairman and CEO Cal McNair called the announcement a "historic day" for the franchise, stating that the move aligns with the organization's goals of championship pursuits and community growth. The project is projected to generate approximately $34 billion in long-term economic impact and create upwards of 17,000 jobs for the Greater Houston area. While the team's headquarters will move, the Texans are expected to continue playing home games at NRG Stadium through the duration of their current lease.
