As Livonia started to get more and more populated, dirt trails became roads and ultimately highways. Agriculture finally gave way to business and industry in 1948, when General Motors Corporation built its automatic transmission plant, and Ford Motor Company soon followed with a parts depot.
In 1949, the Michigan Racing Association decided to generate revenue by building a thoroughbred and harness race track, known as the Detroit Race Track.
