Pay Phone Dials Up Connection to the Past

As pay phones fade into obscurity, the Houston Chronicle looks at the history of one particular payphone. It once was a hub for the whole neighborhood, serving customers from a nearby bar that has since been replaced by condos. It’s been used more than 60,000 times, but now it’s used for just 1.5 calls a day. The company that owns it says there’s still money to be made in pay phones.
