Thanks to all that replied (except those using vulgar words).
I also heard the ATM (and other) cash machines at banks and other
public places are called kiosks. Apparently this is a modern word
because my older dictionary does not contain it.

I'm going to have to qualify that as a free standing structure as well.

There is a bustling business selling Kiosks, and it involves my company as
well, so I *do* have some knowledge.
