Hold that thought... Beginning last week, a pair of downtown bathrooms, located in city parking structures, are being manned by attendants from morning until night. The pilot program is aimed at keeping the restrooms free from the abuses that have plagued them in the past, and kept most tourists and residents alike holding it rather than venturing into the oftentimes harrowing bathrooms. So this week, Q-Line wants to know: Are staffed bathrooms in city parking garages the answer to providing relief for downtown denizens? Will you take advantage of the revamped restrooms?
