General Motors launches $1bn technical centre revamp

17 May 15 General Motors is starting work this month on a US$1bn (£615m) project to expand and renovate its Warren Technical Center campus in the USA.

The work includes construction of new design studios and the reconstruction and renovation of some existing R&D facilities. A new multi-storey IT building will be built as well as new facilities to accommodate additional testing areas. There will also be extensive office upgrades.

The investment is on top of US$139.5m previously announced for upgrades at its Warren Pre-Production Operations facility.

Initial construction on the 326-acre Tech Center began in 1949 and it opened in 1956. The campus was designed by architect Eero Saarinen and landscape architect Thomas Church. It was named a National Historic Landmark in 2014 by the Department of the Interior and the National Park Service.
