ALLEN PARK, MI-Ford Land is planning a major new development on the site of a former clay mine in Allen Park. Ford Land, the development and real estate arm of Ford Motor, says it will create Fairlane Green, a one-million-sf “green” retail and recreational center on the 243-acre site of the recently closed Allen Park Clay Mine Landfill.

Ford says Fairlane Green will be the largest landfill redevelopment project in Michigan and the largest under construction in the country for retail use. When complete, in addition to the approximately one million sf of retail space, the property will include a 43-acre park and 3.5 miles of recreational trails.
