This was the last public bath in Brooklyn when it closed its doors in 1960.
Day 18
Huron Street Public Bath
January 17th, 2012
I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
Wonder what the inside looks like?
Matt, Are you saying this was a public bath with open doors until 1960, an since it’s now a private bath (because the doors are closed)? Just kidding!
Such irony that “erected” is so prominently displayed at a public bath.
Another victim of developers. Being converted into luxury condos for Amazon execs.
