When John Lennon and Yoko Ono first moved to New York in 1971 they rented a small loft here from Lovin’ Spoonful drummer Joe Butler. The building was just a few blocks from the Hudson River. They would later move to their final residence together at the Dakota after their loft was robbed.
It’s said that they were under constant FBI surveillance at this home as the their attorneys battled the Immigration and Naturalization Service over the many attempts to deport John back to England. This was due to the fact that the couple often showed up at antiwar rallies to sing “Give Peace a Chance” and told their fans that the best way to give peace a chance was to vote against Nixon. So yeah, Nixon responded by ordering Lennon deported.
