City Toilet Removed, But It Will Be Back

122707nocitytoilet.jpg

Phillyskyline's Brad Maule clues me in on a development I should have been paying more attention to. The pay toilet is gone!

The toilet opened in November 2006 and probably attracted a few customers or something. The toilet was removed because it was simply a pilot toilet on loan from Wall USA, which along with CBS and Clearchannel are bidding for Philadelphia's street furniture (read: ads) contract.

Anyway, we have a few ad- and toilet-free months (okay, not really ad-free) until the winning bidder gets to put a ton of toilets all over the city. Brad (who's responsible for the photo) has more at his website.

No worries, just pee in that big gaping hole.

So is Philly still going to lose money on the toilet/advertising contract, instead of making money like just about every other city that has them?
