Gamboa, May 28, 1937 - Photo paper poster

Nestled at the confluence of the Chagres River and the Panama Canal, Gamboa emerged as a key town in the Canal Zone during the 1930s. Officially established in 1933, it served as the headquarters for the Dredging Division, vital to maintaining canal operations. By 1937, Gamboa had grown into a self-contained community, featuring tropical-style housing, a commissary, school, and civic center—designed to support American canal workers and their families. Surrounded by dense rainforest and rich biodiversity, Gamboa offered both strategic importance and natural beauty. Its elevated position and proximity to the canal made it a hub of quiet resilience, balancing engineering precision with the wild terrain of the isthmus.
