US Farathane starts work on Auburn Hills HQ

The circa-1995 Oakland Technology Park in Auburn Hills is enjoying a reinvention of sorts. The commercial area is welcoming new businesses and buildings to its 211 acres.

US Farathane recently broke ground on its world headquarters in the Oakland Technology Park. The automotive plastics company will combine two of its locations there, a move that is expected to create 300 new jobs over the next five years. Construction is expected to finish later this year.

The Oakland Technology Park's ownership changed from Chrysler to Southfield-based General Development and Premier Equities during Chrysler's bankruptcy. The switch makes a portion of the land acreage open for development again.
