Richard,
Have you seen the data? When I was planning the Seattle building and
address import, we looked at two different address data sets. Seattle's had
every possible address. For example a corner house would have a housenumber
for both streets. The counties was better but didn't have unit numbers.
Without unit numbers there were a bunch of duplicate addresses, especially
for places like mobile home parks.

Having building outlines to go with the addresses would be really nice
although it would greatly increase the difficulty of the import. If
outlines were available would you consider doing both?

I'd really be interested in learning why NY State is interested in having
addresses in OSM. Can you provide any insight into their thinking?

Best,
Clifford
