As well as Abraham, Muchmore, Moreman and others, there was Dorman.

On the fourth floor, presumably from this perspective somewhere about the middle window?

The man on the left in the inset has probably been identified. The fact that there is a folding seat on the footpath with shadows on it indicating perhaps it hasn't just been stretched out but used for a while there. Security? At some point later in the film, probably at least after the first shot he goes back and folds the chair up and stands chatting to a person.

The man on the right wearing a bib and brace overall spends most of the time looking up towards the east corner of the building.

The same man towards the end of the film is now also looking up. He is joined by another man who has walked across the street to stand next to him. The woman and girl who were standing near him before are now walking down the street.

Quite a few of the people are now looking up at the building. Some directly at Dorman.

Ah, that's great Robin. That's Towner, right?

As for the other guy in bib'n brace. No no hard hat as far as I can see. Also it could be a vest with the coat off, though I can't see it over his arm so maybe an office worker from nearby business. Anyway, the film is full of interesting characters, not least of which is the little girl in the white top running along with the limo at the top of elm street.

In that particular frame she is is running down houston just nearing the corner of elm and the guy in 'bib'n brace is already looking up. He seems to look up non stop and raises his hand to his face in the way someone does when pondering on something. By the time the girl passes where martin catches her running past the opening along the other side of the pond and the Limo isd about where first shot occurs, and Dorman has already panned past this guy and returns later. It's hard then to see who was who, but by this time a fair number over here are looking up. The dash to the GK definitely happened further away.

The little girl seen running in the white top is "Rosemary Willis".

Her father Phil Willis took (12- photos) of the motorcade, including the one famous one, which was snaped as a "reflex" reaction to the first gunshot.
