[OSM-talk] building=grandstand vs leisure=bleachers

[Marc Gemis]

You asked the exact same question in April 2018 on the tagging mailing
list, not ?

I like the response Philip Barnes gave you back then:

bleachers = open structures, without walls, grandstands with walls,
roofs and often for professional sports.

On the other hand we have leisure=bleachers , when the "bleachers" word is propably used only in USA.
