Bathrooms at nine busy subway stations across New York City are reopening Monday for the first time since the early days of the pandemic.
It's been nearly three years since the MTA shuttered the public restrooms in a response to the overwhelming health emergency gripping the Big Apple, and the rest of the world.
The MTA said each restroom received a makeover and will be open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and closed an hour at noon each day for cleaning.
Here's where you can find open restrooms:
