More information:

Pay toilets were banned across New York State in 1975 "a discriminatory tax on human biological functions." by Governor Carey with an exception given to the City of New York. A pay toilet ban across America began in 1969 with a campaign by California Assemblyperson March Fong Eu protesting against the misogyny of restrooms that charged entry fee for stalls, but not for urinals.
