The Ford Wixom Plant Gets A Makeover!
Finally, finally, Ford is going to do something with their abandon plant in Wixom, Michigan and they are going to lease it out. The factory actually opened way back in ’57 during the glory years of Ford and the American automotive industry and it actually encompasses about 4.7 million square-feet … about 320 acres. However, it has been abandon for years and now – finally, the lease is renewed and Ford has come up with a plan.
Two companies are actually going to invest in the former Ford plant and they are going to turn it into a renewable energy park. The plant is going to go through a $725 million dollar renovation and it is actually going to belong to Clairvoyant Energy of Santa Barbara, CA. Basically – they are relocating their headquarter to Michigan and they are going to produce solar panels.
This is fantastic news for my home state, Michigan and I think that this is going to be fantastic for the environment!
