Agreed. Nice to see the place get a little respect. There is a Detroit tradition on Halloween eve of arson, so the owners put out a request for volunteers to help their normal security keep an eye on the place. The plant survived with no fires and no trespassing tickets issued.

I don't know who is doing the posting on their FB page, but here are the comments from the 30th and 31st.

Not long ago trespassers on our E. Grand bridge were throwing stones and bricks at our security officers and a Detroit fire truck. Tonight is Devils Night, we are asking you to be kind to the ol' Packard. Trespassers, will be ticketed. Thank you for your support. Any public "angel night" eyes are appreciated.

Thanks to the public, police, security, eyes on the street and everyone who helped protect our plant. We had no fires and no tickets issued. I was out with the teams until 3am and was really impressed by the support. Again, thank you.
