Historical background
The Dakota, an apartment building located on the northwest corner of 72nd Street and Central Park West, is famous as the home of Rudolf Nureyev, Judy Garland and John Lennon. The latter has left quite a prominent mark in the history of New York. The secret of The Beatles’ fantastic success can be formulated as follows: ordinary boys from Merseyside did not just believe that they will break through and become number one, but also worked for that goal without compromise, giving it one hundred percent. When traveling on their non-stop tour, they remained “the guys next door”, and at the same time were perceived as a new exciting force which revolutionized the British pop culture. Influence of the Liverpool Four on America was no less amazing. You can think whatever you like of them, but their simple words became slogans of the generation. After the band’s break-up John Lennon settled in New York. Here he also became a person reigning over the people’s hearts and minds. There is a spot with a very special atmosphere right next to the place where he lived and was killed in 1980, Strawberry Fields in Central Park. The fans come there and sing their favorite songs. They say it is a sad place, but at the same time you start feeling good and light at heart any time of year when you visit it.
