Friday Morning:
General Motors hopes someone wants to buy its money losing assets. The automaker is hoping a bankruptcy judge will give permission for the sale of profitable assets to a newly created firm and will allow the sale at auction or liquidation of items ranging from contaminated factory sites to a nine-hole golf course in New Jersey. Bloomberg.com reports a foundry in Massena, New York will probably go on the auction block. It produced aluminum cylinder heads for the Chevrolet Corvair back in the 1960's. In the process the factory poured toxic waste into the St. Lawrence River. That property could cost 225-million dollars to clean up. When the reorganization is complete, GM hopes to be shed of all responsibility for 16 plants and real estate in Delaware, Ohio, New York, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Michigan along with assorted parking lots and discarded vacant land.
The golf course isn't actually a money pit, it simply doesn't fit with the vision of the "New GM." The Hyatt Hills Golf Complex in Clark, New Jersey was the site of a factory that produced steering wheels and door handles for GM cars in 1938.
