As reported by Mary Frost in the Eagle, there’s a new free accessible high tech restroom (see Mary’s Eagle photo, used with permission) located in Columbus Park directly across Cadman Plaza West between Montague and Pierrepont streets, facing the construction site of One Montague Place, our soon to be 51 story neighbor. The restroom is provided by Throne Labs, which will have an attendant on hand during its operating hours, which are 7 am to 10 pm daily, to assist with entry or any other problems. The Eagle story quotes City Councilmember Lincoln Restler: “In Downtown Brooklyn in particular we get lots of complaints about people relieving themselves in the street and we expect this Throne bathroom will help prevent that.”

So, there it is. Want to be royalty (yes, even on No Kings Day) if only for a short time? One of Throne’s high tech features is that, after fair warning, when you’ve been enthroned for ten minutes the door automatically opens. You’d best finish issuing your royal decrees on social media before then.
