Also featured was the new handicapped accessible bathroom - dubbed the "Miracle Bathroom!" Thanks to 2001 Miracle on Canal Street funds from Potawatomi Bingo Casino and the handiwork of Chris Freund, WI FACETS' landlord and historical preservation genius, all children and adults with disabilities will now have full access when coming to WI FACETS.
