I hope you did not cut your fanny on the sharp parts.

Where is this plant located?

I find the assumptions that people make to be rather entertaining. New Old Stock engines? Yeah, how about no. Free engines? Yeah, how about trying to steal them. However, there are some people who seem to know a bit more than most on here. As many people have noted, these buildings were surely used by various companies for many purposes over the years. That is a pretty safe assumption to make. We are not looking at a room full of top secret or rare Ferrari engines that remained undiscovered prior to this photograph.

If these are Studebaker engines, then the Studebaker fans will grab them. They seem to keep a good eye on the happenings of the Studebaker plants and make a good effort to keep the important items.

I am thinking this plant must be located in South Bend, Indiana? I lived there for almost 35 years before moving to Cali recently. South Bend has been trying to demolish the Studebaker Corridor area of the city for many years. It has been a big eyesore to the area to say the least. However, the new Studebaker Museum opened recently and it seems a good number of people do a nice job preserving some of the history. Are these photographs from the South Bend Studebaker plant?

Motts doesn't have pictures of MANY things, that's why he needs to make another trip.

No, at least not yet. Hopefully, they won't tear down the 'Berry anytime soon.

Hmmm... joint visit.. sounds like a good idea.

Right now, we're not sure if Byberry will still be standing in mid-March.

im heading up to byberry in mid march if anyone is willing to go

ALMOST every building is made of steel and concrete. Old administrtion on the other hand, is made of all WOOD. If a fire starts in there, the whole entire building will probably burn to the ground.

This picture seems rather disturbing for some reason.

No, not enough time and daylight to see the whole basement.

In old maintenance, there's dozens of EVERYTHING just lying about scattered.

The roof's already gone. It appears to have rotted off.

I was here on monday and the same thing happened. I was atop N-10 when all of the sudden a pig chopper fell out of the sky and circled the building about four times. I knew the cops had infared so I got out of N-10 and into the underground traffic tunnel, then it went away.
