Would a large object take up the same amount of squares as a large creature?

@mikemearls when playing with a grid map would a large object generally take up the same amount of squares as a large creature?

That works. You can also directly convert size, at 5 feet per square. So, a 10' x 5' block is 2 x 1 squares. https://t.co/Zm7qZ0037I
