<P> When seeking a location for Viking 's corporate headquarters in Greenwood in 1986 , Carl decided to lease space in abandoned downtown buildings , not only due to the highly attractive price of these underutilized buildings , but also to try and rejuvenate the central business district of his beloved hometown . Over the ensuing fifteen years , Viking acquired and restored over twenty buildings in the downtown Greenwood historic district . In 2001 , Viking acquired the abandoned Hotel Irving , which was originally constructed in 1917 , to accommodate the increasing numbers of dealers and distributors who were coming to Viking for training and new product introductions . After an extensive restoration spanning two years , Viking reopened the hotel as The Alluvian Hotel and Spa on May 1 , 2003 , having transformed the derelict , abandoned , downtown eyesore into a fifty - room luxury boutique hotel . Soon thereafter , Viking also established the Viking Cooking School across the street from The Alluvian . </P>
