Hi Matt, - It is not clear if including the ids is useful. You should consider dropping them. - Why only put the id on the buildings, but not the address nodes. - Consider figuring out how to capture multiple addresses at the same node location, rather than dropping them in favor of the primary address. - You might want to double check that you have captured all of the abbreviations. It seems like this is always a problem. - Have you down a JOSM verify in places where there are many touching buildings? Again, this seems like it is always a problem/tricky issue. - Do you have any addresses data to conflate with?
