Life Underground is the name of a series of whimsical bronze sculptures by artist Tom Otterness, which have inhabited the 8th Avenue and 14th Street Subway Station since 2001.

This sculpture of an anthropomorphic pay telephone is installed on one side of a support beam on the Uptown A, C and E platform.
