Housing at Los Alamos during World War 2. Interior of a typical house built at the Los Alamos laboratory for people working on the Manhattan Project in 1943-45. The Project,managed by the Army,was the successful US effort to design and build the first nuclear bombs. Security was paramount,so the Los Alamos laboratory was sited in a remote part of New Mexico. As the Project gathered momentum,there was a large influx of scientists and workers and their families. A variety of apartment types was built to house them,some more 'luxurious' than others.
