Rosemary's Baby was filmed at the Dakota. That would make it scary enough for me. If you want to see the inside, rent the DVD. Perfect of Halloween!

I think it needs to be mentioned that this is where John Lennon used to live in the city as WELL as the place that he was murdered. Besides this, if youre a John Lennon fan as well as a fan of New York City architecture, this building is very unique and prominent. The great thing to see close by is the area Strawberry Fields which is inspired by John Lennon. It's only about a couple hundred feet away across the street from the Dakota. The famous tiled, "Imagine." medalliion can be viewed at this spot in Central Park.

Let me tell you...I have never seen anything like this place. I got to go inside. I wish I had not. Ever since then, I have had terrible nightmares. I am not normally someone who gets worked up over these things, but this was the spookiest experience of my life and I still live with it today. I now have nightmares that contain thousands and thousands of babies. They do not do anything in particular, but thousands of babies in a confined space is scary enough. Believe me.

I've been inside this incredible building, because a childhood friend lives there, and what an incredible place it is... Every apartment has it's own hallway leading to a front door - the furniture is dwarfed in these enormous apartments. I love the huge windows in the kitchens. Juts a great place to be. Wish I could afford it!

Editor's Review

The first luxury apartment building to be built in Manhattan.  See the full editorial review.
