Public Bathroom Walking Tour

As part of MAS 2023 Jane’s Walk Weekend, we invite you to join our walking tour to learn what our public bathroom working group has been advocating for to improve NYC’s public bathroom system and to make our public realm more equitable.

Meet at 550 Madison Avenue to see a new gender-neutral public bathroom in a Privately Owned Public Space (POPS) and hear about our proposal to revise the zoning text amendment to require public bathroom access for POPS.

Walk to Citigroup Center to see an indoor POPS bathroom. Learn about the Permanent Open Restaurants Program currently being considered by the city and how we could ask restaurants participating in the program to open up their bathrooms to the public.

Take the M to Madison Square Park to see a fully accessible automated public toilet and hear about how we can install more of these across our city.

Walk down to Union Square to see the Union Square comfort station and newly reopened subway station bathrooms.

Learn about successful programs in other cities and countries, and most importantly, come share your experiences and thoughts about public bathrooms!
