The Dakota where John lived and was shot on December 8 1980. The building is just across from Central Park.
And yes, we watched as a car was driven through the gates with a little Asian woman in the back seat. It dawned on us that it was Yoko and the doorman more or less confirmed it with a smile when asked.

I remember that day ... So sad.
ReplyDeleteImagine what it would be like to live in the USA without all these crazy gun nuts.
ReplyDeleteThirty five years.... wow.
ReplyDeleteWow. What a loss for the world.
ReplyDeleteWonderful tribute. I've been to Central Park to this memorial, and I've stood in front of the Dakota -- so moving and memorable. The words to "Imagine" seem especially poignant this year . . .
ReplyDeleteHard to believe it's another anniversary of his death. I remember EXACTLY where I was when I heard he had died. It's just one of those pivotal moments. Thanks for sharing at Song-ography.
