New York City Mayor Eric Adams has announced a significant expansion of public restrooms in the city's parks on Monday. The plan includes a $150 million investment to build 46 new public restrooms and renovate 36 existing ones. This initiative aims to address the city's longstanding public bathroom shortage. Despite this effort, some critics argue that the city still falls short in providing adequate restroom facilities across all five boroughs.
