<div><div id="ydpce0db3d6yiv8738445335"><div dir="ltr">Thanks for the opinion Robert, good to hear your thoughts. The question is what would you tag? There is not a single outline, but rather 9 separate buildings that together make up Leopold Place, plus there are 18 address nodes too. Combining these into a single item would lose detail, and the wiki page on buildings explicitly suggests mapping each house in a terrace. Naming each building separately also seems wrong. Perhaps a surrounding landuse=residential area?<div><br></div><div>Cheers, Donald</div></div><br><div class="ydpce0db3d6yiv8738445335gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="ydpce0db3d6yiv8738445335gmail_attr">On Sat, 7 May 2022 at 17:13, Robert Weetman <<a href="mailto:robert.wtman.88@gmail.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">robert.wtman.88@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex;" class="ydpce0db3d6yiv8738445335gmail_quote"><div><div>Not sure if it helps to add this kind of response, but I'm going to anyway... <div><br></div><div>It feels instinctively to me to be that the obvious tagging should be with Leopold Place as a building name.
