I would consider OSMI correct here. The directional affixes are a 
Significant part of the address and should be included, so either the 
addr:street or street's name tag are wrong, or there's some other error.

I'm in Vancouver, BC, but this holds true most places I've been for at
least *some* of the roads in the area.
