I thought someone put the booth back up, seems that was not the case.

Too bad, I believed the booth was piece of "americana" that should have been kept for future generations.

It was owned and operated by a for profit-corporation, and the more they control the less will be "kept for future generations." They'd torch the Mona Lisa if it meant more profit to their shareholders.

I called the number and the first words I heard were, "...and the my d*ck gets hard and I have to stop."

Not sure who is operating the number now, but I called it and it texted me this haiku:

  At last I call God
  Waiting for call that won't come
  Receiver's last breath

Fun.

So, neither the phone booth, nor the function of the phone booth, nor the experience of the phone booth, nor the meaning of the phone booth is back.

Thanks for letting us know.

i called and it was some woman talking about her cat and how she smokes to become productive but then can never go to sleep with some guy agreeing with everything she said.
