    You can. I

    1. opened gMaps
    2. grabbed my lat/long
    3. corrected the nearby URL because in #Canada it’s always wrong when on desktop
    4. found the building I was in is apparently 1.3 km away, which will affect my walk to the loo

    But the facility being wrong is secondary; it’s possible.
