A group of separate buildings that make up an apartment complex is a single named Landuse=residential
This is a group of individual building=apartments grouped together to be a singularly named place with a single Landuse. Without the landuse to tie them together, thy are just buildings next to each other.

If you don't go by landuse, you end up with this mess - what happens in Japan with bad data.
The government builds complexes full of apartment buildings, and gives them names like Ref=A1, A2 , etc - but zenrin's data is crap, and feeds the complex name + ref to Google to map each building like it is a separate facility.

I want to avoid this stupidity.
If you visit the complex, it is a single name, with a single landuse, with map out front with the complex name on top, and the refs on the individual buildings.
That is how i want to map it too.
So landuse=residential is a wonderful thing to group buildings into their respective "complexes" - just like buildings in a shopping plaza, a gated community, a business park, industrial complex, or regional capital buildings.
Many buildings with unique names.
One landuse with one name on it.
