So (from how i understand it)
It would actually be a simple process of manually copying over each way
segment and pasting it with an offset, looking at it and adjusting the size
of it... so it lines up to where we see the 1st house (from imagery) to
where we see the last house/building.
or ...
As oh... the direction of the way is from lower # to higher house number? so
it would be 3 separate passes through the data to get the
1 - road name
2 - left side (2 house numbers) - adjust .0001 degress
3 - right side (2 house numbers) - adjust  -.0001 degrees

If thats automatic.. that'll be awesome!
...
I also cc'd feralbob for comments :)

Cheers,
Sam
