New: What In The World Happened Here? CXXXIV(134)  some (late) info on this one- already figured out by Salty, and also in Alan's summary page. I underlined some of the clues: The balloons flown included both the the Intrepid and the Constitution, flown at the Battles of Gaines Mill and/or Fair Oaks, part of the more familiarly known First Battle of Cold Harbor by those in union suits. All of this part of the Peninsula Campaign east of Richmond, Va during the War between the States. description of the picture or it could be at Gaines Mill Balloon Corps And don't forget Th adeus Lowe!

AlanK took more than 3 days to solve this. That's some kind of a record.

There was an anniversary involved, a few months back. There is also one coming up. The pictured building opened on October 28, 1972.

Apparently, there are no fleets of eponymous limos anymore.

Wouldn't want to hurry things too much here, but giving any additional clues would end this puzzle. That's enough for me. I should have realized that the guys referred to in the original post were not the ones chasing Redford and Newman.

Steve and Wagga have the place, but the specific answer(s) to the question may be more elusive. You may have to drill down more than a little bit.
