Potty-themed party celebrating S.F.’s celebrity bathroom concludes $1.7 million toilet saga
A gaggle of television camera operators and smartphone-toting residents trained their lenses on San Francisco’s newest public toilet in Noe Valley Town Square on Sunday, where a party was underway celebrating its completion after prolonged controversy.
Janell Pekkain was tempted to test out the celebrity toilet that made international news for its original $1.7 million price tag, but she demurred, daunted by the media spotlight.
“I don’t want to be filmed,” Pekkain, 61, said. …
What a weird story. But I guess I’m glad the area has a public toilet.
A few less sidewalk poops, worth a couple mil, IMO.
When people say California is in a recession…I say, look in SF…where they spend 1 million on a fucking bathroom.
