Public Convenience

Open urinal (to the right of the lamp post) situated on a Soho alleyway within close proximity to a main street and the (frequently long) queues of two night clubs. Ideal for males willing to trade a degree of privacy for a quicker relief. It legitimises passing pedestrians relieving themselves in a public space. Legitimately pissing in public is relatively novel in the UK though much less so in other societies where privacy is less of an issue or less of an option.

Are public conveniences 'convenient' for the user, or for other members of the public not wishing to observe the process?
