King-Seeley Scio Plant: Largely because this King-Seeley Corp. plant is located in Scio township, employing about 1,000 persons, manufacturing is an important township enterprise. This plant manufactures automobile parts including instrument panels, speedometers, governors and appliances. Huron River Dr. is on the right.

Village of Dexter: Located in the extreme northwest corner of Scio township is Dexter village, one of Michigan's oldest communities. Trees abound in its residential areas. The business district looms in the foreground and the white strip heading out toward the top of the picture is M-132 which links Dexter with Ann Arbor. The New York Central Railroad line, in the foreground, passes around the village's northern edge and here turns toward Chelsea. Dexter was founded by a famous Washtenaw county judge, Samuel W. Dexter.
