Great vid Alec! I love the way you present these buildings to us. No narration, no group of talkers. Just a good, clear vision. I like to check Google Map for your location. What gorgeous country you're in! Thanks for taking the time and some of the risks you do! 🇨🇦

[@elizabethtorres6069]

As long as there's health hazardous material, Asbestos ⚠️ around, the hospital can not be open, untill the material is removed. This might be the reason, why they had to evacuate. Plus a couple of repairs.

[@joedoe7782]

This is only the first video I’ve seen, but it’s amazing! I’ve been looking for explorers like you forever. Ninja quiet, no narcissistic behavior, no captain obvious, i love it! Exactly how I would explore. Too many others always pointing the camera at themselves and non-stop bla bla bla, thats not what i came here to see! You have a new subscriber! Thank you!

Taking out the asbestos and leaving it for six months, rebuilding could make this a fantastic home for elderly or a school.

Some equipment that could be used; so wasteful. They can easily remove the asbestos and refurbish the beautiful buildings at least. Thanks for the video.This

That’s not right🤬 a nice building going to waste.... & there’s so many homeless ppl out here in the world. What’s sad is most are the veterans that fought for your country💔 government in Scotland could use this hotel for a homeless shelter or a nursing home for the elderly ppl & ppl with disabilities.

It’s more than likely that this building has been shut down for safety reasons

Me too, once had a person who entered my hospital room by mistake but it was a broad day and she saw immediately her mistake and closed promptly the door...
