Hi again Terry,
If I were writing your heading, I'd write your house number with street
name on the first line, apartment number on the second Line, City and state
on the third line and the date on the fourth line. Unless your street name
is very long, I can't see why you'd use more than four lines in a
heading. I always wrote Apartment 1 with the number sign on one when I
lived in an apartment. Sometimes I'd put house number or building number
with street, abbreviate apartment with apt. then the apartment number of
number sign one. Sometimes that worked but usually placed apartment
numbers on a second line. No matter how you do it, I think you will find
your BN will set it up nicely for you to be used consistently as you write
any letters!

Dear Jim,
I'll keep your post for reference.
Many years ago, I was taught to put the heading in a letter with everything
in a flush right block and that's what the NLS course required, too.
My address is particularly troublesome because my street name is two words
and I have an apartment number to throw in. Some sighted people use a
number sign before the apartment number, but that's a no-no in braille
although the abbreviation no. is permitted. Even when I used to type
letters for sighted people where I worked, we weren't allowed to use th
number sign as an abbreviation for number.
I'll experiment with my BN and see what I can discover.
I wish you and everyone else on the list a Happy Thanksgiving.
