I was at Chicago Midway airport Terminal B this morning. It was a zoo. Very few empty seats, many sitting on the floor, hunting for power plugs, with long lines for food and even lines for the bathrooms…
…but there was one area in the terminal that was eerily empty and quiet… this alcove that houses about 16 pay phones (8 on the wall, and about 8 sit-down stations). Only one person was in here… quietly eating breakfast.. of course, no one used one these once-popular devices 🙂

Great monochrome shot! I cannot even remember the last time I used a public pay phone 🙂
Thanks, +Rebecca Johnson, me neither… which is why it was kind of fun to see all of these here…so quiet, when the rest of the airport terminal was a zoo.
Bet that was a sight to see! I guess these phones will eventually go the way of the dinosaur since most of us rely on our mobile devices for communication. 🙂
