Tiny free library at Roslindale train station

Somebody's converted an abandoned pay phone in the lower parking lot at the Roslindale Village commuter-rail stop into a tiny free library.

The commuter rail stop has always been Roslindale Village.

I'm willing to bet that before closing for the SWC construction in 1979, it was just "Roslindale."

The development of the new Chinatown Public Library could be administered by a better agency than the City Public Library Department.

Which department are you thinking would be better specifically? DPW? Immigrant Advancement? Food Initiatives?

Here's the list.

Nice Re-purposing. We need more of this kind of thing. Those abandoned payphones are a blight. Covered in graffiti (not art), full of old litter and empty booze bottles.

Water damage of reading material makes me cringe, even if it's just magazines.
