The satellite view is oriented North/Top, as it should be.

Right.  About 450 miles in some direction from the fort that had an anniversary in the news a couple of days ago.  
By the way, I did not get this one until the nice id by tdtz today.  There are some places a few hundred miles to the south that look a lot like that site but I could not find it among them.  For good reason, as it turns out.

Damn you! I already had this in the queue...  
Grumble - need to post something really hard! But solvable.

I'm going to sit down with my redenbacher popcorn reading about the pig in charlotte's web and see if anybody gets this right. 
tdtz gets the prize. He clearly has the   
Wright Stuff .

PS: two things gave this quest away.
1) Family Circle - 25 cents sign in period graphic font/style. Pedestrians in contemporary clothing.
2) Right-click the picture & select Save As.

I did throw that one out there rather quickly.  I agree that even the most basic "security" requires hiding the origin of photos.

No worries, mate. I enjoy putting up the challenges, but even more I like seeing other member's event puzzles. Bring it!

What In The World Happened Here? VII:  Behind the cheap deal fencing is a parking plaza - ideal for the getaway vehicle. If there was one.

This is definately Dealy Plaza looking at the fence behind the grassy Knoll where the final shot that killed Kennedy was taken from.Sorry it is no condspiracy "theory" it is what happened.Kind of my sub specialty subject.

I think it is absolutely amazing  that peeps can identify such a small, nondescript area. Perhaps the clue was a little fat. I have more...
