Building Types in use

Hi,

For the benefit of others reading, an example building the OP is referring to.

Two things:

  1. This has been incorrectly mapped as building=terraced. Ideally, it should be split with an area for each house, each house should then be tagged building= semidetached_house or building=house + house=semi-detached (my preferred option).
  2. The iD editor actually shows this as “Row of terraced houses” for me. “Townhouse” is the US term for the GB “terraced house”. I suspect your browser’s language is not set to EN-GB.

Hope that helps.
