There is nothing like walking around an assembly plant when it is closed and no one is there. On more than occasion I had the opportunity to be in an assembly plant when the line was shut down for a holiday. On one Memorial day weekend I found myself in an empty assembly plant at 3 AM. It reminded of the ship in the movie Alien, an most of the plant was pitch black. It was cool as Hell!

I've only been in two factories -the Trenton, NJ GM parts plant in summer of 1998 (at their closing ceremony right before demolition) and the still active Mack plant outside of Allentwon PA back in May of 2005. The local historical society was trying to save the offices of the GM plant, as they were designed and built around 1935 and art deco was everywhere. The plant was being torn down while the case was heard in court, so a lot of stuff was left in the offices (mostly junk). However, the plant was fenced in and guarded 24/7, so I could never get back on the property to get anything. The case was lost and GM had the art deco-designed offices quickly torn down
