\begin{abstract}
 
We present a wide field, sub-arcminute resolution VLA image of the 
Galactic Center region at 330 MHz.  With a resolution of $\sim 7\arcsec 
\times 12\arcsec$ and an RMS noise of 1.6 mJy/beam, this image 
represents a significant increase in resolution and sensitivity over the 
previously published VLA image at this frequency.  The improved 
sensitivity has more than tripled the census of small diameter sources 
in the region, has resulted in the detection of two new Non Thermal 
Filaments (NTFs), 18 NTF candidates, 30 pulsar candidates, reveals 
previously known extended sources in greater detail, and has resulted in 
the first detection of Sagittarius A$^*$ in this frequency range.
