The reveal

This week’s image comes from the article “The Only Living Pay Phones in New York,” published on May 27.

In the age of the smartphone, it may be hard to recall the importance of pay phones in the daily life of New Yorkers — but at one point in time, you couldn’t walk 30 feet on a city block without encountering one, around the early 2000s when there was an uptick in street side pay phones.
