 A large factory with what appears to be a nearby residential area. The license plate on the Plymouth Plaza is interesting.  For a larger view: http://www.geocities.com/detpixii/detpix68b.jpg Ookpik | ||

I'm thinking the factory is the Dodge main in Hamtramck. It had several stories like in the picture. I had a chance to walk each level when it was gutted and scheduled to be demolished. I remember thinking at the time, "It these walls could talk". | ||

It could be Ford Highland Park taken from the alley behind Manchester Ave. The house on the left looks much like an old girlfriends house who lived upstairs. Two 55 Plymouths and a 53 Olds. | ||

Packard had brickwork under the window frames, so did Hupp on E. Milwaukee, and Dodge Main. I've been looking a photos of each of them, and the next best guess would be the old Chrysler Jefferson; there were some houses oriented that way to it, on the east side of the plant. There was another similar building east of Dodge on Mt Elliot, whose name escapes me right now. | ||

Looks like the place on Concord and E. Grand BLVD. | ||

Looks like the 2-block wide neighborhood just east of St. Jean btw Mack and Warren that was razed along with the old stamping plant for the Mack Ave. engine plant. I think that 56packman got it. (Message edited by swingline on June 07, 2007) | ||

Im thinking Packard on Concord. I dont remember houses that close to the Dodge plant. Also we have been here at the Packard 2 other times already. |
