Dakota Building : ウィキペディア英語版
The Dakota

The Dakota (also known as Dakota Apartments) is a cooperative apartment building located on the northwest corner of 72nd Street and Central Park West in the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City, United States. It was built between 1880 and 1884,〔 and is famous as the home of former Beatle John Lennon from 1973 to 1980, as well as the location of his murder. The Dakota is considered to be one of Manhattan's most prestigious and exclusive cooperative residential buildings, with apartments generally selling for between $4 million and $30 million.
==History==

The Dakota was constructed between October 25, 1880, and October 27, 1884.〔Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS), ("The Dakota, HSBS No. NY-5467" ), pp. 1-11; retrieved July 3, 2013.〕〔Brockmann, Jorg ''et al.'' (2002), 〕 The architectural firm of Henry Janeway Hardenbergh was commissioned to create the design for Edward Clark, head of the Singer Sewing Machine Company. The firm also designed the Plaza Hotel.〔The superintendent of the construction of the Dakota Building was George Henry Griebel, born and trained in Berlin, Prussia, and Karl Jacobson, who were hired as architects for the project. "Griebel also designed and supervised buildings for the Clark Estate for a period of eighteen years after building the Dakota Building including the Singer Manufacturing Company Office Building on Third Avenue and Sixteenth Street, fourteen houses on West Eighty-fifth St, a row of houses on West Seventy-fourth Street; both being near Columbus Ave,the Barnett Store, Columbus and Seventy-fourth St and many others."〕
The Dakota was purportedly so named because at the time of construction, the Upper West Side was sparsely inhabited and considered as remote in relation to the inhabited area of Manhattan as the Dakota Territory was. However, the earliest recorded appearance of this account is in a 1933 newspaper interview with the Dakota's long-time manager, quoted in Christopher Gray's book ''New York Streetscapes'': "Probably it was called 'Dakota' because it was so far west and so far north". According to Gray, it is more likely that the building was named the Dakota because of Clark's fondness for the names of the new western states and territories.
The Dakota was designated a New York City Landmark in 1969.〔Birmingham, Stephen. (1996). ( ''Life at the Dakota: New York's Most Unusual Address,'' pp. 130-131 ).〕 The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972,〔 and was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1976.〔〔 and 〕
Beginning in 2013, the Dakota's facade was being renovated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Iconic Dakota, Built in 1884, Is Getting Some Work Done )
