Technically, yes. Your address is 79 Washington Street. In Denver, anything north of Ellsworth does not have a, "North" designation. Anything south of Ellsworth does have a "South" designation. Historically, that's just the way Denver has always done it. If you go to the "property map" and go south of Ellsworth, you'll see all addresses have an, "S" with the address. Google Maps has it wrong here.

If you walk outside, you'll see the street signs say, "Washington", not "N Washington" ;)

Also, Google Maps cannot be a reference for OSM mapping. Google Maps are often incorrect and they're copyrighted, so we don't use them for OSM purposes :)

I looked up your official property record from the City and County of Denver. You actually live at 79 Washington Street. USPS is most likely adding the "N" so its drivers don't accidentally go to 79 South, if that address exists. Here is your public record: https://www.denvergov.org/Property/realproperty/summary/161252008

Greetings, jahbrewski,

Thank you for your contributions to openstreetmap. I notice you changed Washington Street to "North Washington Street". This has the effect of immediately flagging over a hundred addresses of buildings as being on the wrong street. Can you cite your source for the change to "North Washington Street"? Denvergov.org lists the name of the street as, "Washington Street" and street signs on Washington reflect this as well. Do you have a source or will you please change the name back to Washington? Thank you and happy mapping :)

Understood. Supratau ;)

Interesting. Thanks :)

Hello, Inked, thank you for your contributions to the map. I noticed with a number of your edits you have deleted work others have done and replaced it with your own. That's not quite the way to do things. If you need to change previous work, you can change it, but not delete it. In this case you could have simply changed the sidewalk into a cycleway. Here's something you may want to read: osm.wiki/Good_practice#Keep_the_history

Ačiū, Tomai, can you refer me to the local mapping agreements?

Thanks for your comment. It's my experience that colors render just fine with or without the '#'. Do you have information otherwise? Can you provide a link defining problems encountered without '#'? Thanks

Greetings, thank you for your additions to the map. I noticed the tags you created for hotels on Yas Island; Crowne Plaza, Radisson Blu, Park Inn, Rotana, Rotana Centro and Staybridge. However, these hotels have already been created as buildings and your nodes would simply duplicate work that has already been done. Openstreetmap has a policy of, "one feature, one OSM element". If you would like to delete your hotel nodes, that would be fine or I can do it for you, if you prefer. Thanks and happy mapping! :) osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

Greetings. Thank you for your mapping. I noticed you had given a "name" to the bus ramps here. Just so you know, the OSM Wiki on highways states, "If only buses are allowed then access=no together with bus=yes would be appropriate." So, the ramps don't really have a true "name" as in the case of a residential road or street name. Thanks and happy mapping :) osm.wiki/Highways

Greetings. I've been researching the name change you created for I-25 in Denver; "Dwight D. Eisenhower Highway". I looked at the source you sighted. The first part of the article states the Dwight D. Eisenhower Highway ran from, "I-270 between the Capital Beltway and I-70 in Frederick, Maryland, I-70 to I-25 in Denver, I-25 to I-80 at Cheyenne, Wyoming, and I-80 to San Francisco." While this was correct in 1973, if you read further in the same article you'll see this name, "never took hold". In the same article you'll see in 1990 the entire U.S. interstate system was named after Eisenhower. You can see this map here: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/interstate/finalmap.cfm. In Colorado, we call this highway I-25. or colloquially, the Valley Highway. Specifically, North Valley Highway for addresses north of Ellsworth Avenue (in Denver) and South Valley Highway south of Ellsworth Avenue. Thanks and happy mapping :)

Hello, I noticed you entered, "Reflector House" in the name field of a house. Are you saying this is the name of the house? Thanks :)

Greetings. I just stepped out and checked. These are still marked with their 700 series names. Where did I get them from? I got them from the one-meter posts placed in front of each building which jut up from the ground identifying each building. The 700 series names predate the new Abu Dhabi initiative of street names and numbers. The Average Nomad is a username I used long ago. Cheers.

Thanks. I do my best ;)

As to the name of this bus stop. Can you tell me where you found the name? I just walked over there and cannot find the name you placed here.

Hey, Thanks for contacting me. That deletion was done completely by mistake. I accidentally hit "save" and didn't know how to repair the error. Sorry about that :)
