Mystery Photo Clue #2

Earlier today I posted a mystery photo and offered a hint about where I was.

By the time this post goes up, someone may have already guessed where I was. But if not, here’s another clue:

BTW, ignore the stupid virtual pushpin with the letter A on it. That has nothing to do with where I was. I simply haven’t found a way to get Google Maps to turn off the stupid pushpins.

If anyone knows how, please let me know in the combox!

  1. Looks like one of the main streets in Dallas (Commerce Ave., maybe?) at the edge of downtown, scene of the Kennedy assassination. I think the pushpin is on the famous “triple overpass.”

  2. Where is Mystery Photo #1?
    The only other photo(s) is under “On the Road”

  3. I’m guessing you were down the street from my house. I drive under the Triple Underpass to get on Commerce street every day on my way home.
    What are you doing in Dallas? Are you speaking? If I missed you speaking I’m gonna be cranky.

  4. It may be downtown Dallas but the picture’s an old one. Look at the amount of foliage and parking lots on the north side (top) of the picture. There’s considerably less of both today.

  5. On google maps, to get rid of the pushpin, just delete anything written in the search bar above the map, and hit the search button. Google then runs a search, within the region that you’re already viewing, for nothing and, reasonably, comes up with nothing to put a push-pin on.

  6. Hey Jimmy, to remove those annoying pushpins in google maps: Just bring up the map image that you want then delete the search information from the input fields at the top of the page and hit enter.
    The pushpins should disappear while leaving your map image there. Hope this helps.

  7. Hey, thanks for the pushpin deleting info! I’ve always had to “cheat” by putting in a nearby location and then scanning over to the location I really want, sans pushpin.

  8. “that” being where the push pin is. the TSBD is cut off along the “N” (really, east) border. also, no fair putting things (light alum foil?) on the road. it is trafficked and thus is misleading.

  9. Grassy knoll. Book depository. Etched in our collective consiousness. I doubt I would recognize any other intersection in the U.S.
