How funny, I was just checking out Oxford Street to get some answers to a question I had: namely, if there were buildings in the OSM map, and they were split into their individual shop, what's the best way to tag it as a shop/café/restaurant etc?
Would you tag the building shop=* (or amenity=*...), or add a POI with shop=* on top of the building? The POI Overkill map does not render shop icons for buildings with the shop=* tag (same with restaurants etc), so I'm gonna presume that many other (non Mapnik and Osmarender) don't either, so placing POIs would seem to be the best solution. Anyone got any input?
