Zohran Mamdani is warning New Yorkers that the city's new public bathrooms could open on them mid-use. Mamdani is rolling out a $4 million pilot program bringing 17 free public bathrooms to all five boroughs, each with a strict 10-minute time limit. The self-contained units don’t require direct water, sewer, or power connections and are designed to help address the city’s public restroom shortage. But if you stay too long, and ignore multiple warnings, the door automatically opens. See how the new bathrooms work and where they’re being installed at the link in our bio.
