The Henry Ford
Dearborn, MI, United States

In the 1910s, many of Detroit's wealthy citizens abandoned the city for eastern suburbs. Henry and Clara Ford sought a different path. They selected 1300 acres of farmland in Dearborn (west of Detroit) as the site for their new home. The rambling grounds of the Fair Lane estate - with a herd of deer - suited the nature-loving couple well.
