Toronto has thousands of public payphones around the city. Most people pass them every day without giving them a second thought. With the growth of cellphones, the payphone has become a relic, in decline for several years. Many payphones have become a canvas for graffiti and a place for garbage.
...we have a few that look like these here.
ReplyDeleteI noticed a couple of these ones this week, Andy.
ReplyDeleteIt's unusual to catch someone actually using a pay phone these days. On my very first trip to London back in 1985, I used one of those lovely, red phone boxes to call home.
ReplyDeleteI saw a couple of phones a few years ago and now they are gone.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen one around where I live, but when I travel I sometimes see them at stops along the highways.
ReplyDeletePayphone is near extinct these days. Great shot
ReplyDeleteBut still working it seems. Nice shot from a disappearing image from street life.
