The record — long form
The Rouge is the largest — the 93 buildings that's the complex, the 100,000 who worked. The vertical was the total — the ore that became the car, the 49 seconds that's the rate. The Kahn was the architect — the Albert who designed it, the daylight that's the factory.
The boats were the '18 — the Eagle that were the warships, the river that was widened. The rubber was the Brazil — the plantation that he bought, the self-sufficiency that was the dream. The Rouge is the industrial — the wonder that's the world, the raw to finished that's the flow.
The file keeps the Rouge: the 1917-28 building, the 100,000 workers, the vertical integration, and the Kahn design.
Ford Rouge is the archive's Dearborn file — the largest factory.
