TECH AREA GALLERY (SMALL)
Los Alamos: The Laboratory
Resources: Photo Gallery

All of the photographs below are of the "Tech Area" at Los Alamos during or shortly after the wartime years.  Click on any of them to view a larger version of the same image.  If you have a fast internet connection, you may wish to click here for a photo gallery with larger versions of the same images.  There is a map of the Tech Area at the top and again at the bottom.

All of these photographs are reproduced from Edith C. Truslow, with Kasha V. Thayer, ed., Manhattan Engineer District: Nonscientific Aspects of Los Alamos Project Y, 1942 through 1946 (Los Alamos, NM: Manhattan Engineer District, ca. 1946; first printed by Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory as LA-5200, March 1973; reprinted in 1997 by the Los Alamos Historical Society).  This is a reprint of an unpublished volume originally written in 1946 by 2nd Lieutenant Edith C. Truslow, a member of the Women's Army Corps, as a contribution to the Manhattan Engineer District History.
