Where is Abbey Road....
 
Would love to have my photo taken on the Abbey Road crossing in London.<BR>Where exactly is it???<BR>I will be staying in Camden so Tube directions if possible please.

It is at St. John's Wood Tube,...look for a white stucco building with black wrought iron gates and a low concrete wall with hand drawn messages from fans of years past.................oh yes, and of course, the piano keys!

It is indeed in the neighborhood called St. John's Wood---the building being referred to is EMI recording studio, located on Abbey Road---if you can't find the address in the phone book, call EMI Records, and they'll tell you. But remember, you have to be photographed barefoot, strolling across the "zebra stripes" in a group of four.<BR>"Life is very short---and there's no<BR>ti-i-ime---for fussing &amp; fighting my friends".

You are so right about needing 4 people...anyone interested in joining me for a photoshoot??<BR>Will be in London from the 31/5 to 6/6??

My dad and I did this, we didn't have a group of four at the time, but we found more than willing bystanders taking pictures of the studio...it was a blast!

Hi<BR>The crossing is a three-block straight walk southwest on Grove End Road from the St John's Wood tube station. #3 Abbey Road is the recording studio, not open to the public.
