TheHighland Park Chrysler Plant, located inDetroit, was the originalheadquarters campus of theChrysler Corporation, which was originally theBrush Motor Car Company factory location until through a series of acquisitions, became the property of Chrysler. It was the location of research and development, and at one time, the location of a wind tunnel that was used to develop theChrysler Airflow and other subsequent models like theChrysler Turbine Car. It was closed when Chrysler moved into their currentChrysler World Headquarters and Technology Center inAuburn Hills,Metro Detroit,Michigan in 1996.^[1]

The address was at 12000 Chrysler Service Drive. It was off the Chrysler Freeway (I-75) and Davison Freeway (Route 8), with Brush Street one block away, and predated the formation of Chrysler Corporation itself. The facility was used to improve product development efficiency, increase the ease of inter-departmental collaboration, and create a more satisfying workplace. It was approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) southeast from theHighland Park Ford Plant. It was approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) northwest of the formerDodge Factory in Hamtramck, Michigan, and 5 miles (8.0 km) northwest of theJefferson North Assembly.

It was the assembly location of theChrysler Imperial Airflow,Chrysler Airflow, and theDeSoto Airflow from 1934 until 1937 on a dedicated factory assembly.

The facility was demolished and reclaimed and is now the location of several businesses. Chrysler still maintains a presence at the former campus called FCA Detroit Office Warehouse.
