Last public payphone removed in New York City.
It's officially out with the old, and in with the new for NYC ... cause the Big Apple's last public payphone booth is unplugged.
Officials removed the historic gem Monday morning -- located on 7th Ave. and 50th St. in Midtown Manhattan -- and it was truly the last of its kind. And, just like that, no one will be asking for a dime to make a phone call anymore. This marks the end of the New York City public payphone era. There are still 4 full-length so-called"Superman booths" in Manhattan's Upper West Side -- and, as you might expect, they're essentially museum pieces ... where kids use 'em for Instagram photoshoots.
