This image, taken on the south side of Tenth Street in Oak Cliff, shows Officer Tippit’s squad car and investigators. Over the years, virtually all the houses on both sides of Tenth have been torn down and new homes built in their place. On November 20, 2012, the Texas Historical Commission unveiled a State Historical Marker just behind the north curb (across the street from where the car is parked in this photo) to designate the historical significance of the site. – Gary Mack, Curator
