The final truckload of debris from the K-25 Building demolition project was shipped from East Tennessee Technology Park last week.
The K-25 Building at the East Tennessee Technology Park (the former Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant) was built in 1943 as part of the Manhattan Project.
At that time, K-25 was the world’s largest building under one roof.
Demolition of the mile-long, U-shaped structure was completed in December 2013. Since then, workers have focused on removing the resulting demolition debris.
