  • The Dakota Apartment is Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast's primary residence in New York, an apartment at the Dakota building located at 72nd Street and Central Park West on the Upper West Side. His suite is actually three fifth-floor apartments which have been combined into one, and occupies most of the floor's 72nd Street and Central Park West frontage. Pendergast employs a deaf and mute housekeeper named Kyoko Ishimura to maintain the apartment. The Dakota is a nine-story tall, light-brown colored stone tower with large gables over the façade and a slate roof. It was built in 1884. Both Laura Hayward and Vincent D'Agosta have remarked that the building looked like something out of a Charles Addams cartoon. Inside the entrance is a large interior courtyard with bronze fountains.
