The building I work in is the old Fisher Body #1 plant; the company I work for bought it a while back and transformed it into its new headquarters. See here.

Our building is still on the city's water supply; I imagine all the other GM facilities that are still in production as as well.

According to the last article, their engine plant went off it

Residents immediately raised concerns about water that was suddenly cloudy, odorus and tasted rancid. Within months, General Motors had stopped using Flint water at a local engine plant because it was rusting machine parts. Initial tests also revealed elevated levels of chemical compounds in the water supply that can lead to liver or kidney issues.
