We are compiling a list of gender neutral public restrooms in and around the Twin Cities.
For many transgender people, these restrooms (sometimes labelled "unisex" or "family") are the safest option.
Here's our list to date -- it is always growing, so be sure to check back. If you have suggestions for public restrooms to add to the list, please contact us with the information.
All links on this page verified / fixed as of August 19, 2010:

Some Gender Neutral Bathroom Resources:
Gender-neutral restroom directory listing locations all over the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. "Welcome to safe2pee.org. We're taking web innovations and applying them
to a very real problem facing many in our society: harassment, violence and discrimination in public restrooms."
This is the blog site of the "Safe2Pee" site. A collective of like-minded activists offering a blog and resources to find safe
places to pee and activism to promote gender free public restrooms.
This is the Safe2Pee list of gender neutral bathroom resources: a great list of links, probably most up-to-date and comprehensive on this subject that we have found (they have been incorporated into the resources list on this page you're reading as of Feb. 14, 2009)
Twin Cities-based website with public restroom "reviews" for bathrooms around the world, and many in Minneapolis and St Paul. Not trans-specific, but still can be helpful -- even has photos for some! Usually specifies "unisex" for gender neutral bathrooms.

Toilet Training is a documentary video and collaboration between transgender videomaker Tara Mateik and the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, an organization dedicated to ending poverty and gender identity discrimination.
