Are you going to conflate the addresses with the buildings ahead of time? I usually take the following approach: o If one address inside a building outline, conflate the address to the building outline o Multiple addresses inside individual buildings are kept as individual nodes. One city I'm working on now actually include unit numbers and main building number. In this case the main address is conflated with the building outline and the units are kept as nodes o everything else is kept as delivered.
Sounds like a good project.
