South Bend recovered 15,000 tons of concrete and bricks plus metal and wood from the former Studebaker Plant 8; the materials were reused on site or sold, instead of being buried

The deconstruction of an aged Studebaker factory in South Bend was performed meticulously to reclaim materials for future use.
