Bangor’s Downtown Restrooms Gone | Bangor News

Bangor’s downtown public restrooms — funded by federal pandemic dollars and installed just two years ago — are being torn down after becoming a maintenance nightmare, with frequent vandalism, constant door replacements, and hundreds of hand sanitizer units vanished in a single year. While two units were never even used and remain in storage, other restrooms in parks like Coe and Cascade have fared better and may stay. The city is planning new installations soon, with public input coming later this year, and the old concrete pads will be removed. For now, downtown restroom seekers must rely on limited-access facilities inside City Hall, the library, courthouse, and Harbormaster’s office — so plan ahead.
