President John F. Kennedy (1917–1963), the 35th President of the United States, was assassinated in Dallas on November 22, 1963. The sixth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository quickly became one of the most recognizable locations in modern American history as investigators focused their attention on the building in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. This Associated Press wirephoto preserves a contemporary view of the alleged sniper’s nest and serves as an important photographic record from the earliest hours of the assassination investigation.
