This sample story follows Maya, a fictional New Yorker assembled from common public-restroom access scenarios. At 10:14 on a rainy Tuesday morning, the nearest pin on her phone appears to be only three blocks away. The map says where the restroom is, but not which entrance is open.
She reaches the building and finds two doors, one locked and one marked for staff. A sign in the window points visitors around the corner. By the time she finds the public entrance, her short walk has become a loop around an avenue block.
An honest blank is more useful than a confident guess.
A useful directory has to answer more than where. It should say when a restroom is available, how to enter, and whether a visitor should expect stairs, a security desk, or a closure that changes the route entirely.
In this demonstration, those practical details sit beside every listing when they are known. When they are not known, the page says so. An honest blank is more useful than a confident guess.
The fictional trip ends at 10:29. The restroom was close on a map, but the information needed to reach it was scattered across the block. The difference between a pin and a dependable public service was fifteen minutes of uncertainty.
