Have any of the parsing experts spent any time with the parsing of mailing addresses
 
e.g. recognizing that
 
234-500 Main Street
Centertown,
Maryland
USA
12345
 
is the same as:
 
500 Main St.
Apartment 234
Centertown, Maryland 12345
US
 
and
 
500 Main St Apt 234
Centertown,
MD USA 12345
 
and
 
Unit 234
500 Main
Centertown
MD USA 12345
 
by parsing to add standard address format that might be something like
 
unit type, unit number, street number, street name, city, state/province, country, zip/postal code
 
There are apparently lots of variants with different unit types acceptable and multilingual versions of most everything.
