[00:00:02]Cement.

[00:00:04]Pretty unique foundation work right here.

[00:00:09]I don't know what happened right there.

[00:00:11]Just just sticking bricks in the granite.

[00:00:17]It's easier to build off janky granite than to just have a nice smooth surface to start with, right?

[00:00:26]Pretty yeah.

[00:00:33]I'm just strolling through the neighborhood.

[00:00:37]Come up on what looks to be a big slab of concrete.

[00:00:46]It's right off next to the railroad tracks.

[00:00:49]It's actually right in front of one of these old buildings right here. It's got this old foundation-looking thing running right around it.

[00:00:57]And you would probably think it was concrete.

[00:01:01]But you get a little closer look at these things.

[00:01:06]Maybe they're not concrete.

[00:01:09]See this stuff isn't concrete after all.

[00:01:13]This old stuff right here like this.

[00:01:20]See walls like this a lot. People's driveways in the area.

[00:01:26]It's a big janky wall.

[00:01:34]Look at the Look at the damage on this thing.

[00:01:36]Obviously it leads right into this brook.

[00:01:44]Obviously it leads right into the brook.

[00:01:47]Look at this side.

[00:01:50]The janky concrete.

[00:01:56]What's this material here?

[00:01:57]>> What's this man here?

[00:02:10]Still running the freight around here.

[00:02:12]Used to run passengers.

[00:02:15]Used to run passengers when I was a young kid, but now it just runs the freight.

[00:02:24]And does a good job blocking traffic.

[00:02:26]Blocks it sometimes, too.

[00:02:29]Look at this wall.

[00:02:31]Guess that was easy.

[00:02:36]Smearing some water.

[00:02:38]Instant wall.

[00:02:49]Go down this side real quick.

[00:02:54]It's a stand right This side of the building, too. This is It's just easier to build that way, yeah?

[00:03:04]It's easier to to put the the bricks on the granite.

[00:03:12]Just cut the bricks in half, slide them in there.

[00:03:16]Fit them in. Fit the bricks around the rock.

[00:03:22]Yeah, just fitting the bricks around the rock. Can't forget that little one right there.

[00:03:30]Same here. What's this?

[00:03:37]This is I have to remind to think this is an intentional design.

[00:03:44]Easier ways to to build than to shape in the bricks.

[00:03:53]All right, guys. I'm I can get that one. Don't forget to put the big rock in there.
