Ramsey County History Podcast #7 – Winter 2016: The Ford Motor Company in St. Paul

For almost a century, the Ford Motor Company built vehicles in St. Paul, first on University Avenue, and, from 1925 onward, in Highland Park. Architect and historian Brian McMahon has now published a book telling the story of Ford in St. Paul, The Ford Century. And for the Fall 2016 issue of Ramsey County History magazine, McMahon has written an article about the Highland Park factory’s defense production during World War II. We talked with Brian McMahon about both themes.
