An intersection address names a location by the crossing of two streets. Unlike a conventional street address ("350 5th Ave"), it does not specify a building number. It says "find where these two streets meet." This is common in urban navigation, emergency dispatch, and some countries (notably Japan) where the street-address system is entirely different.
