It is the 10-foot windows lining the walls that make bathroom users are entirely visible to people on the street.

It is the 10-foot windows lining the walls that make bathroom users at the Boom Boom Room club at the swanky（时髦的） Standard Hotel in Manhattan are entirely visible to people on the street, the Daily Mail reported.

The windows are visible to tourists visiting the High Line park, a public area which is built on an historic freight（货运） rail line elevated above the streets on Manhattan's Meatpacking District.

Rows of bathrooms line the walls of the building with users sitting close enough to the windows for passersby⁴ to see them sitting and relieving themselves.

But some patrons said they do not care about their very public display, with one man even waving to people below as he used the toilet.
