American car manufacturer Ford will move its headquarters to a newly constructed building five kilometers from its current one in Dearborn, Michigan, for the first time in seven decades.

The new 195,096-square-foot building will officially be called "Ford World Headquarters" when it opens in November.

The current headquarters in Dearborn was opened in 1956. Some of the most popular American vehicles were produced at this headquarters, including the Mustang, Thunderbird, and F-Series trucks.

The building will have six design studios, a food hall, spaces for mothers and over 300 technology-equipped meeting rooms.
