Description: The front façade of the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant at 461 Piquette Street, Detroit, Michigan. Built in 1904, this building was the second home of the Ford Motor Company (and the oldest still standing), and was where the first Ford Model Ts were produced. Now a museum, it is the oldest, purpose-built car factory building in the world open to the public. The building's façade was fully restored and revealed to the public on September 27, 2008, the 100th anniversary of the first Ford Model T to roll out of the plant.
