phone booth

A small structure furnished with a payphone (and often a phone book) and designed for making calls. Usually the booth has a door to provide privacy and a window. This tag should ideally be used for glassed-in enclosures with a door, but at minimum should have at least privacy dividers and/or a weatherproof roof. Don't use this for open-air free-standing or plain wall-mounted payphones.

Common designs include the traditional British red multi-paned phone booths, and the more modern looking aluminum and glass boxes common in Japan and elsewhere.

These usually feature the standard fat green Japanese payphones.
