Lincoln Motor Company Plant

The Lincoln Motor Company Plant was an automotive plant located at 6200 West Warren Avenue (at Livernois) in Detroit, Michigan, later known as the Detroit Edison Warren Service Center.〔 The complex was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1978, due to its historic association with World War I Liberty engines and the Lincoln Motor Company. However, the main structures were demolished in 2003 and NHL designation was withdrawn in 2005.
==Henry Leland's Lincoln==

Beginning in 1902, Henry Leland steered Cadillac to become a popular, high quality luxury automobile brand.〔 Leland sold the company to General Motors in 1908, but continued his association with Cadillac until the mid-1910s, when he resigned because of the company's unwillingness to transition to World War I wartime production needs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = National Park Service )〕 In 1917, Leland established the Lincoln Motor Company to build Liberty engines for fighter planes using Ford Motor Company-supplied cylinders.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = National Park Service )〕 Leland immediately purchased a small factory on the west side of Detroit.〔 However, he quickly realized the facilities were not sufficient to house the engine production envisioned, so he purchased a 50-acre plot of land at Warren and Livernois. The company immediately broke ground for a factory complex of over , hiring architect George Mason to design the new buildings and the firm of Walbridge-Aldinger to build them.〔 By the end of the war, the plant complex contained the Administration Building and Garage (Building A), the machine shop (Building B), the main Factories (Buildings C and D), a power house, a heat treatment plant, a motor testing building, and other minor structures.〔
In January 1919, after producing 6500 Liberty engines, manufacturing operations were suspended, and the war was soon over.〔 Lincoln considered manufacturing automobile engines for other nameplates in the postwar years,〔 but soon opted to convert to the production of luxury automobiles.〔 However, production delays and the postwar recession of 1920 hurt sales, and the company struggled, eventually going into receivership.〔
