In the United States it is not too uncommon for infill housing in urban areas to have fractional street numbers. So you can see addresses like “123 1/2 North Main Street” for a building located between 123 and 125 (odd numbers are usually on one side of the street so 124 is not available in this example). I already am annoyed by QA checkers that flag that as an error. Defining a slash to mean something other that the, to me, obvious use as a fraction would make things worse. Cheers, Tod
