The dream of saving the old Packard Motor Car plant ended in October 2020. The 35 million-square-foot plant, designed by Albert Kahn on 35 acres closed in 1958. It has been empty and vandalized, used by graffiti artists, metal scrappers, and yes, photographers ever since, leaving it a shell of what it was - It employed up to 40,000 people at its peak. The Peruvian investor bought the plant in 2013, and gave up the idea of restoring the engineering building, and put it back up for sale in 2020
