Does anyone know what the giant warehouse just west of 75 and north of 94 was? I've always wanted to check the building out from ground level but haven't gotten around to it yet. |

I visited a Web site that had a listing on buying/leasing it. It also said, for some reason, that no photographs were available... [Lenses probably break after taking shots of it.] |

Aerial view of the former Fisher Body Plant 21 (from maps.live.com)
I worked there for six months managing the reworks on the 1980 "X" car (Chevrolet Citation, et. al.) pilot bodies that were built there. When they were not producing pre-production pilot vehicles, Fisher Body Plant 21 built production Cadillac limousine bodies. |
