Absolutely in LOVE with these abandoned pay phone murals by ljanet around Philadelphia!

The artist who painted these little murals did so while she was visiting Philly from Chicago a couple of months ago, so it’s unlikely we’ll see any more pop up anytime soon from her. Nevertheless, you can check out her Instagram here to see the handful of locations she put these up in Philly, including 9th and Locust streets (photographed above) and 15th and Sansom streets (photographed below!)
