Or they changed the Barometer and Thermometer since then? You can see below of the column a little sign with "Fifth Avenue"... it´s at the right column. On the photo with john this column haven´t this sign, so like the left column at streetview... ?????

When I zoomed in I noticed it's not a clock but a barometer. 10 seconds later I googled 'Barometer Plaza Hotel New York' and up it pops!! It's still there today on the outside pillar (albeit a newer one).

Arriving and leaving. They flew in from London early that same day. The clock could easily have just stopped in John's pic but either way, seeing as John is wearing the exact same clothing as the day him and Yoko were filmed in Central Park, and that was the 26th, then I think that's pretty conclusive.

I always kept my photo of when I met the Beatles at the Plaza in 1964. Ringo was checking out with Barbara Bach and looked at the picture saying "mate I remember this day" He was a gentleman and autographed it for me. John lived at the Dakota on Central Park West and was still alive at the time.<br />Cheers<br />GreggGregg Salomonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09761172595333553423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108119778215437215.post-78513711032661909622018-02-17T06:54:33.901-06:002018-02-17T06:54:33.901-06:00More than paparazzi that coul have known about the...More than paparazzi that coul have known about the Stakeys before than the Lennons in the Hotel...what were doing other people out of the Hotel early in the morning? <br />Or could have been 4 P.M. in a dark late Autumn evening?

John’s jacket matches the time frame (pics w/P Goresh & film of J&Y walking in Central Park used in “Woman” video, among other things).
