A grand opening was held Saturday morning for the Virgin Islands Port Authority's long-awaited Lindbergh Bay Beach Public Restroom Facility. It was an event the likes of which haven’t been seen. It was definitely the place to go.

The fanfare was complete with music, dignitaries galore, a catered lunch, and dozens of beach regulars out to celebrate the new bathhouse.

The construction of the public bathrooms at the beach was made possible by a $200,008 grant from the Virgin Islands government, and additional funding from the Port Authority.
