The Big "D"

This is the Old Red Court House. Behind it is one of the towers and on top there is a spinning restaurant. What big city could call itself complete without a spinning restaurant. Don't they ever have motion sickness complaints at these places?

I just loved this building. With it's gothic gargoyles on top, and the towers, got to love the towers.
Here is the plaque in front of the John F Kennedy memorial. It reads:

The joy and excitement of John F Kennedy's life belonged to all men. So did the pain and sorrow of his death. When he died on November 22, 1963, shock and agony touched human conscience throughout the world. In Dallas, Texas there was a special sorrow. The young President died in Dallas. The death bullets were fired 200 yards west of this site. This memorial, designed by Philip Johnson, was erected by the people of Dallas. Thousands of citizens contributed support, money and effort. It is not a memorial to the pain and sorrow of death but stands as a permanent tribute to the joy and excitement of one man's life.

Here is the monument, it is supposed to be an open tomb, I don't really see it. The black marble in the center bears his name.
This is a cute tree lane on one side of the monument.
My castle in the sky
This is the new court house. I love all the molding around the door and ledges.
Here is the former book depository the second window down on the right is where the shots were fired from. That floor now houses a JFK museum.
