One of the most satisfying games of geoguessr I've ever played (BRUTALIST ARCHITECTURE #2) 

💀

Other way round. Twice as much cheese per stroke?

​@@loi22 there's only half as many holes facing the same direction, so half as much cheese per full stroke across the grater, but you get stroking action both ways, so double the amount of strokes

I think what everyone is missing, is that you now will no longer end up with a lopsided block of cheese after grating both ways

@@aussieman6371 And the resistance on each stroke will be less, so you can grate a larger block of cheese before your hand gets tired. I think we're on to a winner here!

loooooooool

lol it got me confused too. I was thinking Canada is too young to have such an old hospital lol

it wasn't until he fixated on it the 2nd time that I realized he thought it was a date lol "what are you talking about too old... whatever" "IT'S AN ADDRESS"

It was a good laugh

Never would’ve guessed that in a million years. Definitely thought it was a year.

Looks like the first building?

@@JakeKilka Looking online it seems like you have 2 main designs. 1 - Both directions use the same hole. Basically you just had a hoop that you can access from either side. Look fragile and a hard cheese of carrot might just mangle it. 2 - One set of holes pointing up, the second down. But they are aligned vertically so taht the gouge you grate out is them filled by the second pointing in the opposite direction hole below it. the building design might not really work as the reverse direction holes would lift the cheese up like a ramp.

I’m guessing that’s a microplane?

This sounds like double sided grater propaganda!

Well I’ll be..

Yeah first time I see him guess 2 places I know and have lived in

Same ! 😂

Washingtonians stand up!

Me too!

sorry to inform you, but the WHO did a cross study in 2021 and found that only bitches are born in that hospital

Was there some chance we would think you meant that figuratively?

DHN

@@brnlsn missile (tanto per citare un'altra meraviglia brutalista)

i was hoping that Brazil would show up. Niemeyer is well known for his monstrosities.

E DHN SIA

@@stanvanillo9831 Amsterdam only has maybe 2 buildings that classify as brutalist.

With I'm Blue thrown in for good measure.

sounds like the US “State Route” and “National Route” system

wow thank you this is actually very helpful. I get so confused by european roads whenver I play geoguessr

It is more than that. The UN (UNECE) had the initiative to roll out a network of continental highways. That became the E roads in Europe, but the Pan-American Higway is another example. However, there is more: some countries use the E number on the roadsigns and other don't. North-south routes have odd numbers; east-west routes have even numbers. Branches have 3 digit E numbers. There is more, but my point is that reading up on road numbers can be a tool for geoguessr.

Wash it perpendicularly to the holes

You are not only one

Instantly

Can't be. The "hospital" was a real building already scheduled for demolition. In the wide shot, you can see that the building has already been completely gutted, and windows and signs have been added back on to a few walls, but not all of them.

was it an airbnb on via giovanni lanza per chance? i stayed there last summer and freaked out when that intersection showed up in this video 😂

The crossover nobody wanted...

@@_Shadbolt_ Geowizard vs Limmy battle on a Glasgow map would do numbers

@@sharkdom I'd love it! Huge fan of both.

@@sharkdom that is actually an incredible idea

@@GeoWizard Yass man, make it happen!

the address also helps you locate the spot between numbered roads. In this case, between 17th and 18th, but close to the 17th end.

Franciscans are also an order (named of course after said St. Francis of Assisi) within the Catholic Church and they either still run or have founded that hospital. Nothing to do with San Francisco, you silly Tom.

@@TheAngelsHaveThePhoneBox Nothing to do with the name San Francisco or in English Saint Francis? It is the same person who has founded the Franciscans and in whose name the Spanish named San Francisco.

J'espère qu'il tombera sur l'habitat ou le casino lol

Southern Ontario has a lot as well. all the universities have buildings that look like that

You can always recognize belgium from the wild architecture in row houses. Every single house can have it own design so you will see streets full of houses who dont fit together at all.

Screamed Belgium at me too, though I have been there a few times. So I plonked Antwep 😒

My mom worked in that building, so I knew it right from the beginning lmao

@@tomdepaepe5406 what is the building

@@Milian89 It's just a building full of working spaces

Search microplane two-way grater and it should come up. I have one and it's the best grater I've ever had

We must have had perfect score in the first second! :-D Just adding: only the parking structure and the block @ the back has been demolished. The block at the front will be redeveloped. Saving the best parts of the architecture...

@@kristoffortie5601 thank goodness for that! I nearly had a heart attack when I read that comment. This architecture may not be to everyone's taste, but such incredible examples as this should always be preserved.

I thought your comment was going to go "...but they recently built a new building that is even uglier".

It's sad they didn't demolish the whole thing, it'll still be an eye sore in the Ghent city skyline. I guess it's cheaper to renovate (6% BTW) instead of building a new residential building...

They demolished the back part of it. The tower will be stripped down and get a glass exteriour. The canal and the locks are new. The old canals in Gent were filled to make parking for cars. Recently they started opening them again, but ten years ago there was no canal. The references to Spain are funny. The Spaniards' Castle is located across the water where the canal starts. It is now demolished, but the Spanish periode is still very important for Gent. After a rebelion against the Spanish citizens of Gent were forced to parade with a hangman's noose. Until today the noose is still a proud symbol for citizens born in Gent. I guess some Spanish influence is still present in Gent and it shows?

If he continues the brutalist videos, I hope he'll get more of Montreal building hehe

I went to Jeanne-Mance school as a highschooler, the whole school looks like a concrete bunker 😂...

I was so happy to see to QC rounds!!

Habitat 67 is bound to pop up

Plenty of brutal architecture in the whole province of Quebec let’s be honest. Our past love for concrete is not playing in our favor nowadays.

So funny, I saw the Seahawks sun visor and didn’t see the tacoma on the truck

I was thoroughly expecting that location to not be in Tacoma, but very glad it was there for Tom's 25k.

Well, it did say "Northwest", and it was pretty clear it was the US otherwise. I even saw the Takoma, Washington, but somehow totally ignored the Takoma part and started looking in Seattle first, like a goof. But there aren't that many hospitals in Seattle, so I got to Takoma pretty quickly. When I watched Tom say "Takoma" I laughed at how I somehow entirely ignored it when I saw it.

I am from the ghent too!

Had the shittest week ever this week if you asked me last night. Today at work I went out to put something in the bin and the wind blew the door shut behind me with my keys sand phone and everything inside. I almost killed myself

Hang in there bud.

Same here. GeoWizard is my go-to when things are rough. Wishing you the best!

I agree, especially how he just got the location immediately on the zoom in

Right! that made me beam haha

Yup. The math checks up. Each 500gm yields 1 kg of cheese with this grater.

Repugnant..

Lol my girlfriend goes to this university I've been in that building before.

@@Imsemble cap

I go to this university hahaha

​@@ryanolsen294 why would a random person online that you've never met before be capping

Both Birmingham lads as well lol

It's ugly.

I've only been to Ghent once, but that canal and the style of the houses immediately told me it's in Ghent lol. As someone who loves traveling it feels great to get a location where you have been to and you could utilise your in real life experience to beat the game.

Eifel 65 on the Florence location was very fitting indeed.

It's been updated now on street view

No one cares

@@costa2k1 That's not true!!! 🙂

You're not even the first bruh
