The Highland Park Ford Plant was a production plant for Ford Motor Company in the city of Highland Park, Michigan, which is surrounded by Detroit. The Highland Park Ford Plant was designed by Albert Kahn in 1908 and was opened in 1910. The complex included offices, factories, a power plant and a foundry.[3] Because of its spacious design, it set the precedent for many factories and production plants built thereafter. In 1913, the Highland Park Ford Plant became the first automobile production facility in the world to implement the assembly line. In the late 1920s Ford moved automobile assembly to the River Rouge Plant complex in nearby Dearborn. Automotive trim manufacturing and tractor assembly continued at the Highland Park plant.

  • Dude, people do not care - sadly enough. I'm surprised you did not catch a bullet. That's a horrible area. I don't know if you're from the Detroit area.

  • I think there were 9 generators on the site of the plaza. One of them was moved by henry ford to the henry ford muesem for dispaly in 1929. The thing gigantic it blows your mind they could build stuff like that.

  • Dumbshit....it's ROUGE....as in "ROOOOOJZ". French for RED, ya know! Try to sound halfway intelligent..

  • Interesting video. I lived in HP for 4 years 2003-2007. I know the grocery store and the Model T Plaza also.
