It’s the bullshit health code laws. They require a number of toilets and urinals for projected capacity.
@1: No, it’s not the bullshit “health code” laws. Building codes do require minimum plumbing fixtures based on building use and capacity, but there are very few instances where the building code would require more than a handful of urinals per floor. Large sports arenas and…that’s about it.
Those are some old-assed urinals–maybe original to the building. When the place was built, someone must have had some fucked-up ideas about capacities and needs. Did they intend that every male in the building would only be allowed to relieve themselves simultaneously?
I went to summer daycare there 25 years ago; I recognized those urinals immediately.
Taking pictures in a school bathroom? I can imagine that turning into an awkward situation.
Dan, if you’re ever in Bozeman, Montana (speaking at MSU or something) try to have your show booked at Emerson Cultural Center. It used to be an elementary school and I think you will like their urinals very much.
Seeing “Teachers use the halls” in the context of a urinal post gave me pause for a second.
@5: I love that Bozeman named its elementary schools after great Americans of letters, poets even (in addition to Emerson: Hawthorne, Irving, Longfellow, Whittier). Not every minor-league cow town in the West did that.
