Strawberry Fields Memorial to John Lennon in Central Park

Thursday December 8, 2005
December 8, 2005 marks the 25th anniversary of John Lennon's death -- and undoubtably many John Lennon fans will be paying tribute to his life at Strawberry Fields. Strawberry Fields is located in Central Park near The Dakota Apartments where John Lennon and Yoko Ono lived and was one of their favorite places in Central Park. The 2.5 acre tear-shaped area features the famous Imagine mosaic, inspired by a similar mosaic in Naples, Italy.

After all these years, Mark Chapman Still Sucks.
Remember the buttons that read; Mark Chapman Sucks.
There were over 500 of those buttons given away freely all throughout the first 10 years of the vigils held outside the Dakota.

Anyone still have one ???
