A note on addresses: wherever possible I have included cross streets,
using the following notation:
A/B--on A near the intersection with B
A n/B--on A north of B (or south, east, west)
A/B&C--on A between B and C
In some cases, the intersection is not necessarily the closest
one, but the closest major cross street.
