In 1969, Paul McCartney made what seemed to be a random decision to call the Beatles album “Abbey Road” and put this picture on the cover.
40 years later, Abbey Road is still a tourist destination.

Above is a recent Youtube time-lapse video of the famous zebra-crossing. (Video is a promotional piece for http://www.blameringo.com).
I’m sure the drivers in St John’s Wood curse the day that McCartney made that decision. I know I did when I used to drive through this very exclusive leafy suburb in North West London.
