The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza is located on the sixth floor of the Dallas County Administration Building (formerly the Texas School Book Depository owned by Texas oilman D. Harold Byrd[1][2]) in downtown Dallas, Texas, overlooking Dealey Plaza. The majority verdict of the Warren Commission, was that Lee Harvey Oswald shot and killed John F. Kennedy from this floor.
