VLA data of the Galactic center at 6 cm from the A, B, and C configurations have been combined to produce a high quality image at 0.76″ × 0.41″ resolution with a dynamic range of ≈ 5000. The new combined array image enables a clear definition of the diffuse and filamentary structures in Sgr A West. The bulk of the image processing was carried out with the National Center for Supercomputing Applications' Cray XMP-48 at Urbana-Champaign.
