1906 Buick.

This north-east view  from 1906 shows all the same structures shown below. This photo was taken from the roof of the Stewart #4 body assembly factory. Hamilton Avenue is in the foreground.  Links:

Buick during 1906 shows a  field of stumps yet to be removed. The photographer would have been standing where the future Oak Park entrance to Buick City would be located. This south-east view shows from left to right: factories #06 assembly, #01 paint and transmission, Oak Park Power Company, Weston-Mott axle assembly partially blocking the Stewart #4 body assembly. 

This north view may have been taken the same day as the view above. From left to right is the Oak Park subdivision along Industrial Avenue, Weston-Mott axle assembly, Oak Park Power Company and #01 paint and transmission. Notice that this postcard and the one above are from the same company using the same font.                                                                                      

This was how many workers lived at that time.
