      Hi James,<br>
      <br>
      If there is only one building at the address, I would merge the
      building and the address point.<br>
      You can mark the entrance as described here:<br>

      <br>
      If there is more than one building, add a perimeter, and merge the
      address to that:<br>

    <p>If the other buildings are garages, garden sheds then I would
      still put the address on the house. <br>

      there are several options for tagging buildings with addresss, but
