Clean Working Pay Phone

A lot of people think that East Villagers are all up on the latest gadgetry, that we all have iPhones, for instance, and no longer have need for coin-operated pay phones.

Au contraire, Pierre! Clean, working pay phones can be found all through the East Village. There's even an app you can download that will tell you where they are!

The other day, as I approached this pay phone on the corner of East 3rd Street and Avenue B, I saw the receiver and cord on the sidewalk. I thought maybe some intemperate East Villager received one too many busy signals and took out his frustration on the phone itself.

But no! The receiver either came from somewhere else, or was accidentally left behind by the telephone repairman, because as you can see, the receiver is in place!

Clean, working pay phone, in the cold.

So the next time you're in the East Village, use a pay phone to call your Mom and tell her Hi! She'll appreciate it!
