    I remember when I was visiting the factory in October that there was a major building in the process of construction just south of what would be considered the main street. It was a block south and I believe it was about four stories tall, and long. I remember seeing it down two alleys.

    When I Google Earth it, there doesn't seem to be space for anything there. Certainly not what I percieved.

    I was somewhat slow to realize what this means if, in fact it is there, and, I can assure you that there is something there. At the time I just thought, oh wow, they are building. I just don't know what I was seeing. I would say for sure though that it was one block to the south of the "maim street" and large. Possibly 500' long as I think I saw it down more than one alley.

    So, what did I see? Has anyone else seen it?

    There would have to be a new line you know.

    You are right, it's a new production line. I believe they told us it would be up and running around the end of this year.

    Yes, its a new factory which makes all the Ferrari golf shirts, t-shirts, beach towels and coffee mugs. That's where all the profit is!

    There is a new final assembly building under construction next to the current (old) assembly building. There is another building under construction (across the alley as you might describe it) which is the new employee cafeteria.
