Memorial John lenon (imagine)
The Central Park memorial was designed by Bruce Kelly, the chief landscape architect
for the Central Park Conservancy. Strawberry Fields was dedicated on what would
have been Lennon's 45th birthday, 9 October 1985.
The entrance to the memorial is located on Central Park West at West 72nd Street

The memorial is often covered with flowers, candles in glasses,
and other belongings left behind
by Lennon fans. On Lennon's birthday (October 9) and on the anniversary of his death
(December 8), people gather to sing songs and pay tribute, staying late into what is often a cold
night
