Just tag it as the both_ways model; unless I'm missing something. NE2 is good at finding minutae, but often finds poor ways to tag things in a consistent manner (most glaringly, a mass retag of all US highways as trunk instead of primary, even when undivided). On Sat, Jul 19, 2014 at 8:15 PM,

What's your definition of townhouse? I suspect this word may be in use around the world, meaning different things. What are the essential characteristics? We have to try to be objective - it IS what is IS, but what it is CALLED may vary. On 2014-07-20 06:08, Hans De Kryger wrote: Anyone
