Building names<br />
• Building names may be used in urban <strong>and</strong> rural addresses.<br />
• It’s better to use the full street address than the building name.<br />
• You can put the building name by itself on the building name line,<br />
or on the unit line after any unit <strong>and</strong>/or floor information (eg. ‘Flat<br />
A Floor 2 Ashley House’).<br />
• If there is no commonly known street number, you must use<br />
the building name (if it’s available) on the building name line by<br />
itself. Any unit or floor information goes on the unit line above the<br />
building name line.<br />
• Use hyphens <strong>and</strong> apostrophes only if they are commonly used.<br />
• Don’t use quotation marks around building names.<br />
• If you’re using ‘<strong>and</strong>’, spell it out if possible, although ampers<strong>and</strong>s<br />
(&) are also acceptable.<br />
