--- i would use extended-address for something like "Bailie's Bar" it
is not the street-address, and it is not the locality, but it is
useful. Infact, i probably would work in ORG and FN if this were an
hCard.

--- I am not sure what "Teal street" is, is it a street name without
an address? If so, then you should use street-address, if it is not
(it is some colloquial name), then you should probably use
extended-address.

--- If they are real addresses, with real street numbers, what is
wrong with 'street-address'? If you have the precision to the street
and house number, then what is the dissonance with the ADR structure?
