Dealey Plaza
Motorcade's tragic destination
Dealey Plaza is a public plaza in downtown Dallas, Texas, best known as the site of President John F.
Kennedy's assassination on November 22, 1963.
The area includes the Texas School Book Depository, from which Lee Harvey Oswald fired, and the grassy knoll—a feature that figures prominently in conspiracy theories about the shooting.
The plaza remains a tourist destination and historical landmark.
