It's not highway only. For example, it can be used on railway=platform:

Pieren - thanks for pointing out that "area=yes" is highway only. How could the
documentation for it be clearer [1]?
Seems to me then that starting to use a value "block" for the "place" [2] key
would be an appropriate solution.
Examples:
So for a block QNB12 in Brasilia, the tagging would be

Oh no, please. area=yes has been created to distinguish highway loops
and highway areas. For me, a tag "area=yes" not combined with a
"highway" i
Thanks - any links? A quick look at Salt Lake City gives me street names.

I see your point. While Brasilia has indeed in many places single purpose
blocks, this is likely not the case in all cities. However, place=neighbourhood
is misleading as there are many blocks in a neighbourhood.
I'm liking the `area=yes` as seen in Mannheim [1] better than
`place=neighbourhoo
I think I've seen the addr:block proposal (what's the link?)
My understanding is that addr: fields would be attached to entities that are
actually being addressed, i. e. buildings. Is this correct?
That said. addr:block would indeed be useful for addresses on buildings in
Brasilia.

Interesting. Mannheim uses for a block named C2:
area=yes
name=C2

What do they do in Japan? Japan has a block-oriented addressing system. I
don't know how this is implemented in OSM, but maybe it can be used in
Brasilia.

I don't like the "landuse" tag for this purpose. There could be two
landuses on one block, there could be an empty block with no landuse but
with a block na

We had a similar discussion from a contributor working in Peru and
their "cuadra" system. My proposal was to create a new tag
"addr:block" (+ a name or a number) which could be attached on a
parallel way along the street (like the addr:interpolation). B
Hi all,
A very simple indication whether a shop sells second hand items too.
Please place your votes.
Someone already created a final page for it, with different wording, so
please let's also re-vote on the value "second_hand=yes", despite that
my page really reflects what we discussed: no "yes"
