I remember seeing PUBLIC SHOWERS available years ago when my dad worked in the mining and oil industry out west back in 1954-1956.

Then they disappeared as hotels and apartments became more modern. I learned that the word “modern” in a housing advertisement meant it had an indoor toilet and bath.

Some of the old Carnegie Library buildings had these too (for mill workers too poor to have indoor plumbing)
