This was a pretty epic find aside from the fact that it was so neglected and the urinals were gone.

Amazing find Abandoned Church, vintage Toilet Bowl 1910s

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

The church itself wasn't abandoned but the second floor wasn't used anymore

@vintagekohler6085 Ай бұрын

A beautiful bathroom but I bet nobody used the toilets unless they had to. It looks like the urinals were washout with exposed traps below since there are no urinal flanges.

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

It's especially weird because there is no lock on the main door either.

@aldoayhoniz190 Ай бұрын

Only one original and awesome toilet (the forward trapper). The others are modern crap, but I really like the tiles and design of the bathroom.

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

I think something happened in the '40s that caused this church to need renovation so I'm guessing that one survived it.

Basically almost nothing to see here except for the 1920’s forward trap toilet, not sure what disused means and why. I don’t know if there’s a sewer issue we don’t know about or this church is closing down. There’s no privacy whatsoever and don’t know what urinals used to be here 😔🤨

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

The bathroom in itself is a sight to see. Disused means it used to be used but isn't anymore or hasn't been used in a while. I think that toilet doesn't flush right because it hasn't flushed in a while and it doesn't have good pressure. The church is not closing anytime soon.

@MajesticBaldEagle96 Ай бұрын

I wish this facility was still in use, with all the original fixtures. I believe the forward-trapper is from the 1910s, and survived a 1940s renovation.

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

I looked online a bit and it was built in the 1880s. When I was there, I remember hearing about something happening in the '40s like a renovation, but I don't know for sure. I can't find anything online saying that it was renovated but I sure looks like it.

@Restroomsandtestingvideos Ай бұрын

There’s no privacy and pretty much all the toilets are out of order and one of the highlines does not have a seat and the urinals are gone. What else could happen?

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

I think what's going to happen is they're going to tear this entire restroom apart. Hopefully they just fix what needs to be fixed, raise the walls, and put in stall doors.

@Restroomsandtestingvideos Ай бұрын

Well, I get it. I hope they keep the standard things and vintage things, but I doubt they will.

Other than the five unused toilets mentioned, the flushometer pipes indicate seven ghost stall urinals that were previously present in this particular men's/women's toilet.

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations 13 күн бұрын

I wonder why they removed them and I wonder what the future holds for this restroom.

@jbsimmons54 Ай бұрын

You know, the drain pipes for the missing urinals are awfully *_LOW._* Trying to think of what was here and how it would fit from the 1930's and 1940's and my mind draws a blank. I'm from the 1950's era and I should know this stuff, but I reckon something is really wrong with that plumbing arrangement, just like that wierd last St. Patrick stall layout in the other St. P. video you did, aka "the sideways terlit" with sink...

I wonder how that 20’s toilet ended up in here. I think the original fixtures were “standard” maderas or something.

@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations Ай бұрын

The 20s toilet was probably installed before the renovation and then they just kept it when they redid the tile.
