  • Kenosha Engine Plant Investigation and Cleanup
    Kenosha Engine Plant Investigation & Cleanup RR-894 February 2017 The former Chrysler Engine Plant property is located in the heart of Kenosha in southeast Wisconsin. The plant first opened for automobile production in 1902 under Thomas B. Jeffery and was part of Kenosha’s long-standing history in auto manufacturing, later housing Nash Motors and American Motors Company. The Kenosha Engine Plant property is 107 acres in size. Approximately 3,700 residential-related properties – of which 2,400 are single-family homes – and eight schools are located within one-half mile of the plant. Its general boundaries are: 52nd Street to the north; 60th Street to the south; 24th Avenue to the east; and 30th Avenue to the west. Over the years, a series of mergers and buyouts changed the company name several times – Nash Motors, Nash- Kelvinator and American Motors are a few examples. Eventually the Chrysler Corporation bought the site, and in 1998 Chrysler itself was bought by DaimlerAG, which owned the site until 2007, when Cerberus Capital Management bought the company. After manufacturing automobiles and automobile parts for over 100 years, the plant was a casualty of the 2009 recession and was shut down in the fall of 2010, after the A sign describing the history of auto production in Chrysler Corporation declared bankruptcy.

Old Carco, a liquidation bankruptcy trust, owned the property after the Chrysler bankruptcy proceedings were finalized in May 2010. A settlement agreement, filed in the US Bankruptcy Court in October 2011, was reached with the state of Wisconsin, the city of Kenosha, the United States Government, JP Morgan Chase Bank (the first lien holder of the property), and the Old Carco Liquidation Trust.

  • Nash, Charles W. Nash, Charles W
    Nash, Charles W. Nash, Charles W. https://history.gmheritagecenter.com/wiki/index.php/Nash,_Charles_W. Charles W. Nash was the fifth President of General Motors. He was elected to this position on November 19, 1912 and under his leadership, General Motors made immense gains in profits earned and vehicles produced. Nash was born in January 28, 1864 on a farm in DeKalb County, Illinois. When he was six years old, his parents separated and his future was shaped by the courts. Under a guardianship court order, the young man was sent to live and work for farmer named Robert Lapworth near Flushing, Michigan. Nash was bound to work for Lapworth until he was 21 years old, earning only room and board during that time. Under this arrangement, he worked for about 50 cents a month. Within six years, Nash had had enough of his indenture to Lapworth and left the farm to make a new start. Charles Nash was an industrious young man. He was able to make a living and accumulate a modest savings working on various farms in Michigan. With his savings Nash purchased a herd of sheep that continued to grow and provided him with a bit of financial security. In 1890, six years after marrying a young woman named Jessie Halleck, the young couple moved to Flint to be closer to medical aid when she took ill. It was in Flint that Nash’s destiny would become entwined with Billy Durant and the fledgling automobile industry. Upon moving to Flint, Charles Nash was quick to secure employment.
