This is going to sound a little silly, but for several years I had been looking forward to the day when I could walk up Central Park West......this had something to do with the TV series, 'Central Park West' (CPW)!! Silly I know, but it is such a beautiful area, and the apartment buildings/offices here are fabulous. During the 5 days we had in New York we walked all over the city, but the area that I liked the most was the Upper West Side. Could never afford to live there though...

 Shattered dreams... by teddy1066 Whereas Strawberry Fields in Central Park is a rememberance garden...The Dakota building is a shrine. John Winston Lennon was gunned down in this archway on the night of December 8, 1980. Do you remember where you were? I was a young kid in England, a Beatles fan, and I remember crying. John and Yoko brought the concept of peace into this country...we should honor it. Leave a Comment

Perhaps General Ulysses S. Grant is best remembered for his leadership in the American Civil War. He was the Republican nomination for President of the United States in 1868 and served two terms (8 years). It is generally accepted that his skills in the battlefield outshone his qualifications as chief executive. He died on July 23, 1885. The tomb, nearly 150 feet high, is America's largest mausoleum and was completed in 1897. It overlooks the Hudson River. The memorial has a museum and a small gift shop. Now, who is buried in Grant's Tomb? I'm not telling, but you might be surprised when you visit. Leave a Comment Phone: 212-666-1640Directions: Riverside Drive at West 122nd Street. Take the 1, 9 subway line to 116th Street and walk the couple of blocks to the river.

 The Dakota by littlesam1 The Dakota building hold special significance because it was the home and also the location of the murder of John Lennon. Seeing this building brings back so many memories of John, Yoko and their son Sean when he was young. I still remember seeing all of the pictures taken of them in and around the neighborhood. Now it brings back the tragic memory of his death also. Leave a Comment

by Maggies The main places of the complex are: Lincoln Center Theater, Metropolitan Opera House and The New York State Theater. It’s New York’s home for dance, music and theater. The plaza fountain is a very famous site when it comes to performing arts. Address: Upper West Side

 Dakota Building - John Lennon's Apartment by Blatherwick The Dakota building is best known as the home of former Beatle John Lennon starting in 1973, and as the site of his murder on December 8, 1980. Yoko Ono, still has an apartment in the building. The Strawberry Fields Memorial was laid out in memory of Lennon in Central Park right across Central Park West. Leave a Comment

 Let's get some toe shoes! by jessicadf Tamirros poses in front of Lincoln Center, between posters for the ballet. Look at his foot position -- perhaps he should apply to Juilliard and get out of NYU! Leave a Comment

 I wonder what they represent by jessicadf Walk around the Lincoln Center grounds. There's lots of eye candy, interesting architecture and places to sit and relax. Pictured here are some sculptures within a pond. Leave a Comment

by bugalugs The Dakota Building - This was the apartment building where John Lennon lived and was shot outside and killed on 8th December 1980. The film Rosemary's Baby was also filmed here. although in the film it was called The Bramford. At the time of filming Lauren Bacall also lived here and she would join neighbours outside to watch some of the filming! Leave a Comment Address: Central Park West/West 72nd Street
