Problem with this idea is usually the fuel is not sold in the convenience store, and at newer convenience store models that actually care about their customers beyond being a walking wallet (ie, OnCue, QuikTrip) will have a separate driveway and parking area behind the store so you don't have to ge

In my opinion the "gas station" is not the building but the whole area. Also the address belongs to the whole area and that's the way I tag gas stations: - Draw an area to cover the complete gas station and put amenity=fuel together with additional tags like the address on it. In my region i
