Model S beside the Piquette Plant

While the Piquette Avenue Plant is renowned for the Model T, it produced many more Model S [foreground] cars. This Model S, along with the 1920 Model T behind it, stands against the west side of the plant.

SUPPORT THE PRESERVATION OF THE PIQUETTE AVENUE PLANT

Ford Piquette Plant

The Piquette Avenue Plant was built and owned by Ford from only 1904 to 1911.

It was Ford's first self built plant and was soon outgrown due to the success of the Model T.

While decayed, the plant is structurally intact.   Currently, it houses a laundry service on the ground floor while a small portion of the upper floors are use for warehousing.
