White Bluffs Then
An unidentified man stands before a gas station in White Bluffs, Washington in this early undated photo. Along with Hanford, White Bluffs was purchased and obliterated by the federal government in 1943 to make room for the Manhattan Projects' plutonium plants to develop the atomic bomb. The desert-line terrain was considered virtually worthless by project planners.
