Somehow, 1808 is the address of both [[Lyric Hot Dogs]] and [[Haverty Furniture]] (originally the [[Majestic Theatre]]), but they are two separate spaces in two different buildings.  I'd guess that some retail space at the [[Lyric Theatre]] was split at some point, but it's only a guess. --[[User:Lkseitz|Lkseitz]] 20:13, 15 July 2009 (PDT)

* The [http://www.flickr.com/photos/dystopos/3718204335/sizes/o/ map I'm using] doesn't specify addresses, so I've used some guesswork and probably made some dumb mistakes. Apparently the original idea was that no matter what size parcel you had, each 25 feet of it would merit a new address. This hasn't always been held to, though, and many streets (especially outside downtown) got renumbered at one time or another. --[[User:Dystopos|Dystopos]] 20:53, 15 July 2009 (PDT)

Future planning

At some point, I expect we'll be breaking out the downtown streets block by block to provide more detail. When that happens we'll want a better way to show historical changes. Just thinking out loud. --Dystopos 09:39, 20 March 2009 (PDT)
