The unused and faintly depressing husks of pay phones around the city will soon be re-animated as WiFi kiosks.
Called "Links," the kiosks will be fitted with touchscreens and charging stations and will have access to 9-1-1 and 3-1-1, public service announcements and free phone calls to U.S. numbers. The kiosks will also have large digital advertising panels. The ads themselves will pay for the converted tech spaces, meaning the creation of these helpful hubs will be completely free to New Yorkers.
