 In Auburn, Indiana. This is the factory office and showroom. It was an is one of the finest examples of the Art Deco style, and is worthy of showcasing the mighty Duesenberg, front wheel drive Cords and sporty Auburns. It now functions as a museum, with fine examples of the autos made or sold here (Duesenbergs were typically not built in this factory, but the Auburns and Cords were). When you bought a Duesenberg, a factory representative drove it to your house, and checked it over with you to make sure everything was just right.

A good image of an architectural icon. The angle is odd and gives the impression of going uphill, but it is level. Very well composed and executed.

Good linen era image, 40's-60's, but you should have gone whole hog and P-off the voters with classic processing too. ;)

Building's falling to the left. It might have helped if the vertical lines of building weren't tilted.
