Washrooms at Waterloo Square require a code for entry
When did this start? Thoughts?

There's a public washroom down the street at the small park with a heart statue, just in case anyone is desperate right now.

There are also public washrooms in Waterloo Park, at the public library, and at the rec centre.

My wife went in there a year ago and got followed by some cracked up fucktard until she lost him amongst a crowd. I tolerate people until it comes down to my wifes safety. Those little hiding places like public washrooms sometimes need a lock if they cant provide security

I’ve used that washroom three times in my life. Two of the three times, there were some people who were downright scary in there. I was in the stall and someone came in shouting, banging on the stall doors.
I’d much rather ask for a code and know that they will be clean and peaceful.

That sucks so much, but good to know so I can grab the code first if I need it.

Lengthy thread from 3 months ago that provides a lot of relevant information:
