I made that edit almost 11 years ago. I believe the building is now occupied by an auto body shop, so the power_ question is now moot.

I agree, and have made the change.

Indeed. When I added stop signs six years ago I wasn't aware of the "direction" tag. Thanks for fixing.

Oops, I had previously been poking around Somerville and it confused me. I've fixed the addresses.

Undoubtedly was a typo and should have been barrier=gate.

Or perhaps, now that I load that area, you are referring to the missing "direction" tags on the stop signs. When I mapped this (almost two years ago) I didn't know about that tag. It does need to be added to most of those signs.

I can't tell which intersection you are referring to.

Yes, it was torn down at the end of 2021. See, e.g., https://reverejournal.com/2021/10/20/the-end-of-an-era-in-revere/. Bing does say copyright 2022, but the imagery actually seems to be from 2021 in that area.

I think you have just recreated the Showcase Cinemas on Squire Road in Revere that are being torn down. As far as I know, aerial imagery showing the new construction is not available yet.

Thanks, I've fixed it.

Fixed, thank you.

138 and 140 Altamo(u)nt are interesting. They are physically located in Saugus (where the street is called "Altamount") but have Melrose addresses (where the street is called "Altamont"). USPS standardizes their addresses to Altamont (no "u") so perhaps that's what we should revert them to?

This is another case where an 'alt_addr:street' key would be useful...

Yes, the latter.

I don't believe so, for two reasons:

1) If you type in such an address into the USPS zip code lookup (https://tools.usps.com/zip-code-lookup.htm?byaddress), it standardizes the address to just "Woodcrest".

2) Melrose's assessor's database (http://melrose.patriotproperties.com/default.asp) shows all of these addresses just as "Woodcrest".

Understood, thanks.

It is my understanding that historical features such as 400-year old coastlines are not appropriate in OpenStreetMap (see osm.wiki/Good_practice#Don.27t_map_historic_events_and_historic_features). You might want to add them to http://openhistoricalmap.org

"Somerville" is spelled with a single "m"

This is not Oakwood Lane, it is just a service entrance to the high school. Oakwood Lane is already on the map, just to the east.

This is not Woodland Road; it is just a service road for the medical complex.
