I wish I had a better shot of this (I took this picture from a cab riding by) because it is one of my favorite buildings in New York. It is the the Dakota apartment building and whenever I see it I think of old New York. I love to see old pictures of New York when the Dakota used to stand by itself next to Central Park. I would just love to see inside. Unfortunately I don't know anyone who lives there!Thursday, November 8, 2007

What an absolutely beautiful building... I think it would be my favorite too.
son histoire restera toujours lie au nom de John Lennon. Yōko Ono vit toujours dans cet immeuble. Tu as raison c'est vraiment un superbe immeuble.
Its history will always lie on name of John Lennon. Yoko Ono still lives in this building. You are right it is really a beautiful building
Those air con units!!!!! they get everywhere.
Classic NYC!
Isn't that where John Lennon was shot?
From a taxi? good! The structure, the color..all, makes this spectacular building. (Sin for that climatizzatoris.)
That is a great building. A reminder of times past.
Great shot from out of a taxi cap!
Love the details on these buildings.
always think of Lennon when I see that place.Its a very stunning building and spooky when looked at in the right light.
My girlfriend waits until places are for sale ( perhaps and appartment in this case?) and then books a visit. No intention of buying she just wants to see what they are like...
I believe Yoko Ono still lives there. So do Lauren Bacall, Maury Provich & Connie Chung.
Praise the Lord for these marvellous and characteristic old buildings, Lori.
I guess that you can't simply go inside, with all the security.
Anyway, sometimes some of our best shots are taken spontaneously, even from a moving car.
I love this one, and the way in which you took it.
Ripper.... and thank you !
Very beautiful building through the other comments I have learned famous peoples lived there...nice constrast with yesterday building architecture
Well, I'd say this is a very nice picture from taxi!! Really, well done. If you find somebody to visit there, would you invite me to go along? I'd be nice and behave, I swear.
