The K-25 History Center officially opened at the former K-25 Site, now known as the East TN Technology Park. A large crowd, many of whom worked at K-25 before it closed in the mid-80s, gathered in the cold sunshine to hear officials from DOE, UCOR and the City of Oak Ridge praise the efforts of those former workers as well as the current workforce engaged in site cleanup, one of the largest and most complex in the DOE system and well on its way to closure. The museum is open the same hours as the American Museum of Science and Energy and is well worth a visit.
