58 Bagley Avenue Shed at Its Original Site, Detroit, Michigan, circa 1908
01
Artifact Overview
This shed sat behind a house at 58 Bagley Avenue in Detroit, Michigan, where Henry and Clara Ford lived for 3-1/2 years. Henry and friends built the Quadricycle, Ford's first automobile, in the shed in 1896. Many years later, Ford had the building reconstructed in Greenfield Village. Photographs of the original building and site helped ensure the replica's accuracy.
