That’s awesome. In America they just sit on the streets and don’t work or they get taken out for the most part. This one in Philadelphia is the first time I’ve heard of a public phone

There's one outside my house that gets quite a bit of use. Suburban street.
Often it's people who pull up in cars. Maybe they have a limited plan, maybe calling their dealer or lover, idk.
Lately it's a guy who looks a bit down on his luck calling his mum. (He shouts at her, that's how I know.)
There are at least three others within a ten minute walk.
