Looks like Reno has City Plaza covered with a third @PortlandLoo

Now that a third “Portland Loo” has been up and running at City Plaza since this summer, what do you think of the overall public restroom availability in northern Nevada? Are there any notable public toilet deserts?

Here’s what we’re watching this #toilettuesday 🧻🗞️ uk.news.yahoo.com/green-party-pl…



Without restrooms, all people are robbed of their dignity, respect, comfort, and health.

The lack of public restrooms hits the most vulnerable the hardest—the houseless, elderly, and differently-abled. They face more stigma, health issues, and isolation when their needs aren't met. Addressing this benefits everyone!
