I've tested with MapSource and the map created with r3337
and the default style.
I search for a street and type just "51".
It shows a list starting with 
"51st Avenue"
"51st Avenue (Ny 25a)"
"51st Drive"
"51st Road"
"51st Street"
"52nd Avenue"
...
It doesn't contain "West 51st Street".

When I enter "West 51" it shows a list starting
"West 51st Street"
"West 52nd Street"
...

Are you sure that you find the right street ?
