Hartford Pay Phone #31


It's actually quite surprising that this particular pay phone didn't get listed on the Sad City Pay Phone Search until #31. Located at the busy intersection of Park and New Park Ave, we drive by this pay phone all the time. There's a lot going on around this intersection. There is the Parkville Community Elementary School which has tons of different flags hanging on it. At a long line at the light it's always fun to try and see how many flags you can recognize. Turn one way down Park Street and you get great Asian food, turn the other way and you will get great Mexican and Latin American food.

Or just stop, get out and make a call. But whatever you do, don't go into the store hawking DirecTV. It's a whole other story for another time but trust us, you do not want to deal with DirecTV. Ever. Probably the most predatory company operating in Hartford.
