Another fire and police call box that’s had an encounter with a fender. An informal survey has revealed that many of these 1960’s boxes around Brooklyn are in absolutely pristine condition. Given the driving skills of some of our neighbors (sub-par) and the positioning of the fire call boxes on exposed corners, this surprises me. My research will continue.
