While it may seem smart to maintain the association between 'street' and 'street number' and 'street number extension', because of the word 'street' as the only way to define a postal address - and because 'GOOGLE' is the single source of acceptable truth, there are in fact many more options available differing from country to country.

I give you, as food for thought: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_(geography)#Current_addressing_schemes]
