Speaking of zero based indexing, my neighbor's street address is "0
Meadowood Drive". There was a "4 Meadowood Drive" already existing. They

building a house they built two cottages. So they had to number them 0 and
2.
Weird. Here the standard solution for this is to number the new
houses as 2/a and 2/b.
I don't know how they would handle if the two new houses were built in
place of a house already numbered as 2/a...


This could be solved by numbering them 2/a and 2/@.

Well, seriously, they could be numbered 2/a and 2/c, thus not interferring with the existing 2/b. The ordering of the houses along the street would be a bit weird, but still...
