I have done this in the area around Potsdam, NY. Assigning the address
to the centroid of all the points that describe the parcel works quite
well. It's not perfect, though. Look at May Road. I've entered addresses
there in three different ways:
o On the building as an area, traced by hand and added by hand.
o On the centroid of the parcel as a point.
o On an address interpolation way, which hops from parcel point to
parcel point.
The addresses are, as a rule, close enough to the houses to be well
worth the effort it took to import them. But, go look at it yourself.

I support this import.
I would also support the import of addresses for neighboring Oakland, CA.

Greetings!
I've been recently thinking about importing addresses for San
Francisco, CA.
It looks like there has been interest in this kind of import (the
page devoted to it was created in 2010,
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/San_Francisco_Address_Import).
So, please, consider this message as my "community buy-in": does
anyone have any objections related to this possible import?
By now I've obtained a permit from the data owner
(https://data.sfgov.org/Geographic-Locations-and-Boundaries/Addresses-Enterprise-Addressing-System/3mea-di5p)
and almost finished writing my code for matching buildings to address
points.
If there are no objections, I'll go on with organising all
documentation and sharing the code/resulting .osm-files for review by
OSM community.
Looking forward to receiving your feedback!
p.s. I have some experience in importing addresses (e.g., see
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/MassGIS_Addresses)
