[Imports-us] DWG Action on Blacksburg, VA Building and Address Import

[kg4sgp]

Hello all,

I've seen the same thing on the apartments, multiple addresses clustered
within/near the building with no differences. I am regularly in
Blacksburg, VA and have many friends there. I would be happy to provide
any "ground truth" if that's needed.

As this is my first time messaging the list I'll also introduce myself:
I'm Jimmy Carter an OSM contributor since this summer.

-Jim
