Many moons ago in France I remember there being these public restrooms in parks that cost like $.25 to use, but then washed themselves before you got in/after.

Many moons ago in France I remember there being these public restrooms in parks that cost like $.25 to use, but then washed themselves before you got in/after. Could that be the next phone booth style trend?
I would happily pay $.50-1 to know its a clean bathroom that is disinfected. On a busy new york street with tons of foot traffic at $.50 the machine could easily generate $5-10k/day gross.
- foundart 13y agoWe have them in San Francisco. Apparently, they are not so great. http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/It-s-time-to-raise-a-stink-over-public-toilets-2393868.php http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/It-s-time-to-ra...

If a bathroom was used for 45 seconds, cleaned for 15, and then immediately back in use every minute of the day (which is probably a crazy estimate), it would generate $30 an hour, or $720 a day.
- brianbreslin 13y agoeh, you're probably right. I was thinking a street like 5th ave which has hundred thousand people walking up it every day.
