Add address to place

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I'm not sure how all this works, but having another level for Place makes sense, specifically the street address or possibly the name of the place (St. James Church or City Motel). Having the city as the finest grain doesn't work too well. Yes you can add coordinates, but the app I use has an coordinate finder, but if it can't have an address it's not going to work.

So the PlaceDescription allows for any degree of specificity. Is there a reason you can't just add the address to the place name?

It's pretty flexible. You can actually separate the description of the address from the description of it's "jurisdiction" (e.g. city) to reduce confusion.
