These boxes mark the exact spot where America changed in seconds. On November 22, 1963, Lee Harvey Oswald fired from this window inside the Texas School Book Depository. From this corner of the building, overlooking Elm Street, one of the most shocking moments in American history unfolded. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Today, the space has been recreated to show the position and view from that day. While you can't look out the exact window, you are able to go up one floor and look out the window directly above. This gives almost the same the view that Lee Harvey Oswald had. 📍 Texas School Book Depository. Dealey Plaza - Dallas, Texas.
