There may be regional differences. one example - in St. Petersburg Florida, the direction is important; 26th Avenue North is a completely different street from 26th Avenue South (they are 51 blocks apart) and the addr:street tag would be in error if it omitted the North/South.
26th Avenue North and 26th Avenue Northeast in St. Pete is also a meaningful difference, they are connected but the directional changes from one to the other at 1st Street North. richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
