To fully appreciate Bowl Plaza in Lucas, you need to start from about 50 yards away. That’s because the entire structure is shaped like a toilet! Opened in 2012, the restroom facility – built to provide handicapped-accessible restrooms – is mosaic art at its best. The folks in Lucas take their mosaic art seriously; it’s a tradition that dates back to the 1940s. Outside and inside Bowl Plaza, you’ll see colored bottles, broken pottery, dishes, tiles, toys and mirrors on the walls. Plus, you won’t want to miss a spectacular 14-foot mosaic oval lid and a toilet bowl “drain” depicting swirling water with items people have accidentally dropped into the toilet bowl. So far, over 10,000 people have visited Bowl Plaza from all 50 states and 50 countries. “Winning the title of America’s Best Restroom would mean so much for the people of Lucas,” says Wendell Cowan, who helped construct Bowl Plaza. “This project was truly a community effort, conceived, built and completed by everyone in Lucas in some way. We are incredibly proud of our creation.”
