Thou they where already closed permanently when I was a kid in 60s Pittsburgh had at least 3 different locations where you went down a set of steps along the sidewalk which went down and under the street where you could use a Restroom.
They had latest modern fixtures and Tile walls and where Seen as a convenience for the trolley commuters and public instead of having to as ask to use a businesses restroom .
Sadly They also had separate Whites only and Colored only sections during the Jim Crow Period ,
Which was another major reason why they where built if you where colored forget asking to use the restroom anywhere .
Because the city failed to properly maintain them. They became havens for Crime, Filth and Vandalism
They where then sealed off and eventually dug out and or then filled in and paved over in late 60s early 70s
