The Ford Glass Plant is cutting plant activity altogether. Hopefully there is a company out there willing to buy out the plant. Either way, for now 500 jobs with a median pay scale of 60-70,000 are gone.

If I'm not mistaken, it's been sold before to Visteon, then re-purchased by Ford.  Seems like Visteon couldn't make it profitable as a stand-alone plant.
