New Mexico’s Tech Roots Get Historic Recognition

Two New Mexico landmarks—Dorothy McKibbin’s Santa Fe home and the Cal-Linn Building in Albuquerque—have been added to the State Register of Cultural Properties, with national recognition on the horizon. McKibbin’s house was a vital social hub for Manhattan Project scientists during WWII, while the Cal-Linn Building housed MITS and served as the birthplace of Microsoft’s early work, including the BASIC language for the Altair 8800. These sites honor New Mexico’s pivotal role in shaping modern tech history. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
