Map is wrong[edit]

I don't know how to update it, but DHAM is Wayne County, and map shows it in Washtenaw County.

History section is not neutral and is poorly cited[edit]

The history section of this article is full of strongly negative language that appears to be intended to represent only one side of a controversial issue. For example:

The saddest hidden fact was that the old Jewish cemetery, called Beth Olem, became an invisible casualty. Rather than require GM to pay to move the cemetery, Mayor Young let them build a block wall around it. To add insult to injury, the cemetery is essentially abandoned as visitation is nearly impossible.

Several important details also remain entirely uncited. I am not knowledgeable about this topic, so I would not know how to better contribute. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.63.179.19 (talk) 17:59, 20 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was hoping that somebody else what get around to improving this article. However, since no one else seems to have time, I am just going to go wiki-bold and delete a lot of the obvious false and un-sourced pov in this article. The stuff about the jewish cemetery is particularly misleading. The older pre-existing plant parking lot engulfed the small cemetery long before General Motors built the new assembly plant. http://www.michjewishhistory.org/pdfs/vol33.pdf Lance Friedman (talk) 14:31, 11 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
