Public Restroom

Clean enough considering the numbers of people using the facilities however sadly only 1 toilet in use

Free public restrooms in the middle of city. Not perfectly clean, but when considered how busy this place is, they are clean.

Don't listen to the cycle rickshaw chumps. This restroom is open and doesn't have rush on Saturday at 7 pm on a summer day.

I was in Central Park running with friends one morning and I had to use the bathroom. I saw a sign for this bathroom as we were running the outer loop on the west side and was able to follow a few other signs straight to this bathroom.

There was a homeless man standing outside the building with his things. I decided to be brave and just kept running past him into the women’s side. The bathroom was relatively clean. I was able to use the bathroom quickly and run back to the outer loop easily to catch up with my friends. I’m not sure what I would’ve done if I hadn’t see the sign for this bathroom.

*(Park staff start work at 7am. They need time to clean and check the playground and it's equipment for safety. So, 7:30-8am it the realistic opening time)

It was OK, playground was closed because of the snow.
Bathroom was like any other public restroom. Bunch of guys just standing in there by the sink just chilling which was very awkward.

It's really good to have restrooms in the Central park near playground.
But we have found this one to be closed few times during the day that was a surprise.
