                              There s this shop that has shop windows on

                              <br>
                            </div>
                            Some of its shop windows have street
                            numbers. as shown here<br>

                            <br>
                          </div>
                          This is  a quite common case, as you can see
                          here<br>

                        </div>
                        Some have their shop windows separated by
                        building entrances or a different shop windows<br>
                        <br>
                      </div>
                      How do I map these ?<br>
                      <br>
                    </div>
                    My idea is that every shop window should be its own
                    point with address info and then a relation should
                    group them and be tagged with common data, such as
                    the shop name, the web site, the phone number, the
                    operator, whatever<br>
                    <br>
                  </div>
                  Does anyone here know of any example of a similar
                  situation ?<br>

            <div>I would say that it depends on your jurisdiction and
              how they create addresses.  In my case, the address is set
              most of the time by what side the water meter is on.  In
              that case it is easy to set the address except on corner
              buildings like you point out.  In addition, in newer
              addresses it seems that the whole structure gets an
              address.  Then sub-addressing as they call it provides a
              suite/flat number for each of the shops.  I have also seen
              the cases that you provide.   In this case, I make an
              address point in the building polygon where the doorway is
              located. A shop window can provide the same address point
              location.  I just create a separate POI for the shop.  The
              address will remain even if the building is torn down but
              shop owner and merchandise can have great volatility.</div>

    A single shop:<br>
    Some larger 'shops' have entrances on all sides of a block - so that
    is on 4 streets. However the shop would only use one of those
    addresses. <br>
    You don't tag the individual windows, you tag the shop - either as a
    single node towards the shop entrance, or main entrance if it has
    more than one entrance, or you tag it as an area using a closed
    way.  <br>
    <br>
    Multiple shops:<br>
    Tag each shop separately .. they may share addresses being within
    the same building. <br>
