The three sites indicated in the article and photos include the South Trim Pad, another parking pad and the turnaround circle behind Hangar 19 (Arm/De-Arm Scoot-N-Hide).

The shadows on the parking pads are just jet-blast deflectors. The H-19 turnaround was put in after the new taxiway was built and the hangar extended. Aircraft used to be able to drive through the hangar and follow a taxiway around but this route was eliminated with the recent construction. The turnaround circle may also double as the new Compass Rose, replacing the one that used to be on the pad that is now disfigured with greenish stains.
