I made a rush visit to GM Headquarters today. I was on a tight schedule and didn't have much time to look around, so I just started snapping photos. Here's a sampling - I'll post more if anyone's interested. (sorry Hawkeye, I didn't have time to call. I'll make sure I leave more time next time.)
1st Floor Entrance:

At the entrance looking right:

Glass display cabinet with Camaro collectibles:

View from the second floor:

Display screens in the centre showing the Camaro story - with Mr. Fbodfather himself: (I took a lot of photos from the screen show)

Nice job. It's about 15 minutes from my house.

Where did you park? I'm sure I will end up down there the coldest and wettest day, and I have never been in the ren cen. I will also be pressed for time because I get out of work at 3 and getting downtown will take about 30-45 minutes.

I guess you live right in downtown Windsor hawkeye. I thought you were on the outskirts of the city.

There's a parking garage and public lot on the north side of the GM complex (near tower #3). There's a spiral stairway and an overhead covered walkway connected to the #3 tower. GM World is on the first floor of the main tower in the centre (no, that's not a typo - that's center in Canadian ) of the complex.
