Falsehoods

This is a roadmap snapshot, current as of May 2026. For current state, see the scope declaration, How Mailwoman parses an address, How Mailwoman resolves a place, and How it works now.

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.
