Bathroom redesign by DesiredUsername (4.00 / 1) #4 Mon Mar 20, 2006 at 01:18:37 PM EST
This statement of the problem has generated the obviously correct solution to the issue of disgusting bathrooms: More windows. If you could see right in there from the main retail floor, store managers would (in the moderate-to-upscale district, anyway) be compelled to keep it clean. Furthermore, the certainty of being witnessed would keep people from dirtying it up in the first place.

Some of the cleanest bathrooms I've seen in NYC can be found in a Thai restaurant named Peep in SoHo. The outer walls of Peep's heads are a series of one way mirrors. While you cannot be seen, you can see out clear as day. The effect, however, is the sense that everybody can see what you're doing in there. This sense of being watched, combined with the fact that most people feel too uncomfortable in there to do anything, seems to keep things tidy.
