The building is interesting and central on Commercial Street. The public bathrooms are cleaned by an attendant. It is an easy stop while walking around town.

This is just a comment on the absolute beauty of this structure! We didn't have time to go in, but we stood in awe at the lovely paint colors and the obvious care it is given.

My husband and I enjoyed a great concert in the lovely space of the Provincetown Town Hall. We saw the Messiah performed by the Cape Cod Symphony Orchestra which was magical. The acoustics were great. What a historical and lovely setting. Enjoy!

The renovation was worth EVERY Penny. The focal point for the town serving as a gathering place for all sorts of events. And it has public bathrooms when walking around town shopping!

This is a review of "Ptown" as a whole as we hadn't been for a while. This is NO LONGER a place suitable for families, straight or even civilized gay couples.
