I can see a lot of unintended consequences with this type of requirement.


Building codes are pretty cut and dry, and setting aside special space for an additional restroom may not seem to be a big issue, but it will drastically affect all projects going forward, primarily in smaller office/retail types where SF is at a higher premium. I would be pretty pissed if I already had limited real estate, and was inevitably forced to pay the same price (if not more) for new rental space with less effective area for customers, since the bathroom is still considered 'rentable space' in most leases. If not, then it would most likely be applied to your core factor which is split among fellow building tenants, and still passed down to you.

Personally, I love the idea of having single rooms where it's just one toilet and anyone can use it, but they're not economical and require more space to meet building codes for plumbing fixtures/SF. Can't believe I'm saying this, but I prefer to drop my deuces in solitude; however, the economics don't make sense.
