You have an area in the area defined by the tertiary road tagged as
area=yes, name=<name>
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/32912591
Would perhaps adding highway=pedestrian (or perhaps remove the
area=yes and use a landuse tag?) help the renderers know how to
render the area?

Map Features suggests that area=yes is to indicate that a feature
that is normally a way is in fact an area, but you haven't actually
used any way tags.
