Uniroyal Tire during Demolition


Fabulous Ruins of Detroit Industrial Tour

Uniroyal Tire Plant

They don't build 'em like this anymore.

The Uniroyal Tire Plant was built to withstand aerial bombardment. During its demolition, I once counted the number of hits by the wrecking ball that it took to knock down a single column for a single floor.

Amazingly, the column withstood thirteen hits before it fell.
