Philadelphia Athenaeum, Brick Privy, 219 South Sixth St (East Washington Square), Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, PA
Contemporary with the construction of the Athenaeum of Philadelphia in 1847, and located in the attractively landscaped garden, this unusual privy is of masonry construction and contains 6 private compartments, each with access from the exterior. The slatted compartment doors are of particular interest.
