GM TARRYTOWN, штат Нью-Йорк, США

For over 80 years, General Motors oldest assembly plant sat on the banks of the Hudson River, building millions of iconic Chevrolets and arming the nation in World War II. But in June 1996, corporate spreadsheet calculations and a flawed minivan design wiped out 2,100 jobs and half of the town’s tax base overnight. Facing total economic collapse, the residents of North Tarrytown did something no industrial community had ever done: they voted to erase their own name from the map and become Sleepy Hollow. This is the story of how one company built, dominated, and destroyed an American town and the ghost story that was chosen to replace it. #generalmotors #tarrytown #newyorkhistory #sleepyhollow #ManufacturingHistory #americandecline #chevrolet #documentary #FactoryClosure #automotivehistory #rustbelt #CorporateGreed #IndustrialAmerica #factorydocumentary #factorytown
