Constructed in 1924, the Pressed Steel Building produced auto frames, fenders and body panels. By 1937 over 4,000 presses were used to make over 2,000 separate auto parts. Some of the parts were sent to Building B for assembly, while most parts were shipped by rail to other Ford assembly plants. At its height, the plant employed 10,000 workers including 1,200 mechanics.
