Philadelphia is installing its first ‘Portland Loo’ restroom in Center City

After a long wait, Philadelphia may soon begin installing its first modular public restroom in Center City.

The first of six Portland Loos arrived in Philadelphia this week after a manufacturing delay, said city spokesperson Sarah Peterson. The city-managed modular toilet will go up at 15th and Arch Streets, a pedestrian-dense area where temporary porta potties have been installed since 2021. Construction barriers are up at the site, but officials did not have a timeline on installation or when the bathroom would be ready for public use.

So how is this toilet different than previous toilets?

[akley88]

it has a mesh opening at the top and bottom, is graffiti resistant and can be washed out with a hose

[MikeinPhilly]

2 weeks max and it will be unusable and a warning sign will be needed for sharp objects

I'm not sure if the Porta potties will cause crime but I'm willing to bet that they will be used in the commission of various crimes.
