Founded in 1886, by 1900 it was the largest carriage manufacturer in the country. This very successful business made the partners rich men and it became the core on which William C. Durant and J. Dallas Dort began to build General Motors. Flint Road-Cart Company changed its name to Durant-Dort Carriage Company in November 1895. By 1900 they were building 50,000 vehicles annually from approximately 14 locations. They were a major rival of Flint Wagon Works. In 1906 they were making 480 vehicles each day with 1,000 workers. Durant-Dort owned not just the Flint manufacturing works, but also other vehicle assembly plants in Michigan, Georgia, and Ontario, together with timberland, lumber mills, a wheel manufacturer, the Flint Axle Works and the Flint Varnish Works. Durant sold out of this business in 1914 and it stopped manufacturing carriages in 1917. Durant-Dort Carriage Company was dissolved in 1924. The Durant-Dort Carriage Company Office is a National Historic Landmark (1978) owned by General Motors. A late 19th-century office building located at 316 West Water Street in Flint, Michigan, it was built and occupied by GM’s parent, Durant-Dort, followed by Dort Motor Car Company, until 1924. This building was the focal point of William C. Durant’s efforts in initially building carriages and later, automobiles. The building is the only extant building closely associated with Durant. In this office, pivotal decisions were made in the development and financing of the Buick Motor Company, the beginning of Chevrolet, and Durant’s founding of General Motors.
