No two points on Earth can have the same longitude AND latitude. That's what

makes the system so useful ... Once you have those two numbers, you have

one single point nailed, anywhere on Earth.

An infinite number of points can have the same latitude, and another infinite

number of points can have the same longitude. But two points can't have the

same of both.

Now we can go to your question:

Are you asking about the Burlington in Labrador, Ontario, Prince Edward Island,

Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, North

Carolina, North Dakota, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Texas, Washington,

Vermont, Wisconsin, West Virginia, or Wyoming ? Since you didn't tell me that,

I get to pick one. I'll answer your question for the Burlington in Massachusetts,

just because I used to work there, back around the time the feds were haggling

with France to buy Louisiana.

The center of the intersection of Cambridge St and Bedfid St in Burlington MA

is located at

42.5050° north latitude

71.1959° west longitude.

-- No place in Spain or Turkey has that same longitude.

-- Within about 10 miles north or south of that latitude in Spain, we have

Pontevedra, Ourense, Ponferrada, León, Burgos, and Logroño.

-- No place in Turkey has that latitude. But if I may, I'd like to give a special

shout-out to Samsun, on the Black Sea (north) coast of Turkey, where I was

stationed for 16 interesting months, and whose latitude places it only about

84.3 miles south of the latitude we're looking for, or roughly the same latitude

as Omaha NE and Evanston WY, and ... something I never noticed before ... only

about 50 miles south of the latitude of the chair I'm sitting in right now.
