Three blog posts ago, I mentioned Dealey Plaza, the site of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and the 50th anniversary of that event in U.S. history next year. It just so happens that Dealey Plaza is currently being restored.
WFAA-TV (of the Dallas-Fort Worth area) has an article on the restoration (from last May) and they wrote:
DALLAS - Plans are underway to restore the historic Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas in time for the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
The two-acre site, completed in 1941, has gone largely untouched for much of its more than 70 years.
The plans include repairing structural damage, updating the fountains in the two reflecting pools and bringing some sidewalks into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
