In my eyes an address is not a relation. It comes close, but a house 
*can* have an address that has nothing to do with the road that passes 
it. The address "31 So-and-So Street" does not mean that this is the 
31st house on So-and-So Street, it doesn't even necessarily mean that 
the entrance is via So-and-So Street or that it is in the vicinity of 
30, 32, or 33... I view an address as an individual attribute of a 
certain property that is often similar to addresses of neighbouring 
properties, but need not be.

Bye
Frederik
