Hi Graeme,<br>
<br>
When I've mapped addressees I've added a node where the driveway
enters the property. This has two advantages: it's easy to add when
doing a street survey (unlike mapping a building or property
boundaries), and when navigating to the property the driveway is
usually where you want to go.<br>
<br>
In your situation this means a node near West St tagged with 135
East St. Add a note tag to explain why if you think this will help.<br>
<br>
There is no consensus according to <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<blockquote>
<p>Address information can be added to OpenStreetMap using a
variety of methods, such as adding a simple node containing an
address, adding address information to a building, site or other
area, or alternatively to an entrance node for the building or
site.

<div>Where do you put it's address node - on East St where it's
