Home to many wealthy and famous, The Dakota is a landmarked building on the Upper West Side, at 72nd Street and Central Park West.

The craggy rooftop of this building is shown in the opening scenes of Rosemary's Baby. In real life, it has been the home to celebrities including Lauren Bacall, Boris Karloff and Jason Robards. John Lennon lived here, too, and was shot outside in 1980.

Gas lanterns light the facade and there is at least one doorman at all times.
