Once a staple of urban life, payphones are becoming relics of the past. In 2024, the payphone in the parking lot of Banjara Indian Cuisine near Christie Pits Park was commemorated with a heritage plaque installed by the Toronto Sign Reimagination Unit. Nestled in a humble parking lot, this tribute acknowledges the disappearance of payphones, inviting passersby to reflect on how quickly everyday technology fades into history.

BlogTO was kind enough to publish a story about this important new heritage plaque.
