Similar to the neighbouring Theatre Royal, the Playhouse also has two FHRS identifiers. I stopped into the ticket office to ask about on-site eateries, and The Boards is part of the Playhouse building in an upstairs area -- I think this is therefore the non-bar-related FHRS ID of the two. There is a separate bar in the main building from the main entrance, and I think that that must be the FHRS ID for the eatery with the word bar in the name.
2~ 1 month agocommentedjayaddison
♦159
Taking another look at this, it still seems non-obvious. I think there are three places where food could be bought in the building: Little Picardy, which has a recent rating that mentions pizza, The Boards pizza restaurant, which I understand to be a separate part of the building (but perhaps shares the same kitchen?), and then the bar -- which I haven't visited and so I don't know whether it offers prepared food or only snacks/prepackaged food.
3~ 14 days agocommentedosmuser63783
♦1,281
Little Picardy is a separate bar, it has its own entrance. You can go there without going to a show. There are multiple bars inside the building that you can only get to when a show is on, and if you have tickets. Personally I don’t think they are worth mapping separately. Not sure about food, but they serve wine and beer by the glass, that alone probably means they require an FHRS rating. What isn't clear to me (not having been to either) is whether "The Boards" and the pizza restaurant, "Pizza al Teatro”, are the same place or not. I haven’t been to Little Picardy. It’s possible that you can order pizza there that comes from the same kitchen as Pizza al Teatro, which would explain why they have one FHRS rating.

Should we just add https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/102243 and https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/522873 to the amenity=theatre? (With a semicolon) Then when one of us visits The Boards we can find out about its relationship to Pizza al Teatro (an alt_name possibly?) and Little Picardy.

"Now part of the coffee shop next door" The place has gone or never existed. A user of Organic Maps application has reported that the POI was visible on the map (see snapshot date below), but was not found on the ground.

The note says: POI types: building-address So I think the user left this note on the address node (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3208861701) It doesn't make much sense to me to say this has been removed. So I think the note can probably just be resolved? Or #surveyme to find out what's going on

Hello! I am the user who reported this. The POI that doesn’t exist is the address node. The coffee shop next door at 274 Leith Walk extends into the space OSM indicates is 4 Balfour St. The door for number 4 physically exists, but it has been blocked off and its number removed.
5~ 1 month agocommentedjayaddison
♦159
I think there could be various ways to indicate this - I'm thinking of setting entrance=no on the node, based on the related quote from the wiki: "It looks like an entrance, i.e. there is a door and possibly a housenumber displayed here, but it cannot be used to access the building (e.g. the door is permanently sealed). " From: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:entrance

Adding disused to the housenumber field would leave a node with city, country and street - I wonder if some software might faultily interpret that as a point node describing a street?

The British Heart Foundation still has a location here - there seem to be three units at ground floor, and in order from Northmost to Southmost, those are the Cube (vacant), Starbucks, and then the BHF.

Thanks! Both Starbucks and BHF give their addresses as The Cube (47 and 43a Leith Street, respectively) so I wonder if the name should be applied to the whole building
4~ 3 months agocommentedjayaddison
♦159
I think that The Cube is currently the name for the entire building, and is when it was constructed. Whether it'll remain if The Cube (office management business) ceases to exist as a named entity there, and/or whether to include The Cube in the ground-level addresses.. I'm less sure.

Sounds good to me. I noticed there's a small silver-coloured metal plaque on the west side of the building that also displays The Cube as the first line of the address (and also displays the postcode, if I remember correctly).

Does Boundary Bar really have two postcodes (EH6 and EH7)? And if so: can we find owner/press/authority sources to check those against? (source(s): FHODOT; web search)
2~ 1 month agocommentedosmuser63783
♦1,281
That would be fitting: historically, when Leith and Edinburgh were separate, it was on the boundary. When the two had different licensing laws, one side of the pub would close earlier and people had to move over to the other side. But an EH7 postcode would need to go with a Crighton Place address, the EH6 postcode is the only one that makes sense for a Leith Walk address. Therefore I'm inclined to agree with FHRS here...

Royal Mail lists it as EH6 8SE https://www.royalmail.com/find-a-postcode (though strangely they don't have a 381, maybe that needs removed as I can't see another door)

Mapping as EH6-only probably does seem simplest in that case then, despite the fun :) I thought I noticed two separate doors to the pub - but I didn't check the corresponding street number(s).

3~ 1 month agocommentedosmuser63783
♦1,281
There is no cycle lane in the direction of traffic. Contraflow cycling is allowed but the infrastructure is very patchy. For most of the length of this street it's a painted on cycle lane but there are sections where it's protected by bollards (mapped elsewhere in Edinburgh as cycleway=track) and bits where it gets interrupted by parking bays so cyclists share space with cars (cycleway=shared_lane). If you want to map this accurately, you have to split the road the way it's been done with London Road. Is this what you are planning to do Simon?

After the tram works completed I walked the whole length of Constitution Street and took pictures to update the access tagging. The access=no tagging was intentional, as it's only open to pedestrians (so it's overridden by foot=yes). No cycling is allowed here. A cycle route is being built along Henderson Street and should soon open officially. I've added a note to say cycling is not allowed here to prevent any confusion.

I live nearby so I could do that although from recollection it's in a fenced/walled off area so entry might not be possible. Also from recollection the cemetery is tiny (thinking back 30 years it was something like a dozen gravestones) so might a spot mark rather than a perimeter be more suitable (asking because I am new to OSM surveying)?

Is Castle Hill actually a pedestrian zone?
2~ 11 months agocommentedosmuser63783
♦1,281
I was here today and checked. Technically it is not, there isn't any special signage. In practice it is. Since Lawnmarket has been dug up to re-lay the setts and Johnston Terrace is one way, there is currently no way of legally driving a car here. (That hasn't prevented a dozen or so cars that are parked on the Esplanade, not sure if they have a special permit) We could wait until the construction work on Lawnmarket is finished and then see what the situation is?

We have just https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/27279864 as Argyle House, but news reports say Argyle House is about to be demolished and that it is home to Codebase. The location we have for Codebase is definitely correct, so maybe Argyle House refers to this part too?

This is part of the Argyle House development, along with the other block to the south. The name in OSM has only been added to the main block of the building; and I think it seems sensible to map this as a separate element, as it is a much bigger multi-story building. However, it is not going to be demolished any time soon

It's probably just the building unless there's a street sign, though either works tbh. However the addr:city should be Blackness rather than the place or suburb like you've added here https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3721722927
3~ 4 months agocommentedosmuser63783
♦1,281
Thanks! If it's a street name we should add it as name tag to a street, if it's not a street name then we should use addr:substreet or addr:place instead of addr:street... (I'm systematically going through addresses which have both addr:place and addr:street which is always wrong) For addr:city, the guide I am using says that should always be the post town - which I think in this case is Linlithgow?
4~ 4 months agocommentedGinaroZ
♦7,535
Yeah I saw that guide and have seen talk-gb/forum comments a while ago, wasn't really sure about it but didn't get round to making any objections! For example there's only 13 post towns in Fife and 113 towns/villages, would be a bit strange for all Dalgety Bay addresses to have their addr:city as Dunfermline - and then what would be the addr tag for Dalgety Bay? Maybe I'm wrong but I've just used addr:city for a distinct town/village, because I guess if someone wanted to come along later to add the post town they could do so while retaining the town/village info.

The segregated cycleway here is drawn as starting west of Waverley Bridge, and it's not connected to the bridge, so it's not possible to join it when turning right from the bridge, is this correct? I think up to the junction with the bridge it's just paint? Need to check #surveyme
2~ 3 months agocommentedjayaddison
♦159
From a (beginner-level) survey - it does look like it would be possible for a cyclist to turn right from Waverley Bridge northbound onto this cycleway in the direction of Princes Street eastbound -- with a small caution that there is a small island/divider between cycleway and main roadway just before the cyclist would pass the pedestrian crossing. Perhaps mapping that divider would help to clarify the routing to join the cycleway from the bridge, and the layout of the lanes.

I did not think to check for any no-right-turn signs on Waverley Bridge facing towards Princes Street. Perhaps a right-turn there is prohibited. Ref also: https://drscottarthur.scot/2024/05/02/jenners-and-waverley-bridge-update/

The footway here is mapped twice: it's "included" in the highway=cycleway (which has segregated=yes so represents both a footway and a cycleway) and it's also mapped separately. Either the footway related tags should be removed from the cycleway, or the highway=footway deleted.

This is now no left turn from the S (except bus, taxi, cycles) and no right turn from the N (except bus, taxi). So you can't turn onto George Street in a car here. Since the turn restrictions are correctly mapped, the access tags on the road segment are a bit redundant but not wrong.

OK so I went down a bit of a rabbit hole one day and looked this up in the Scotsman Archives. If I remember correctly, they are right, the place is named after an Archibald Chessels (not Chessel).

Looking at the satellite imagery, it seems like the channel between the two is a bit deep for them to be connected at low tide. And that's comparing all the built-in imagery in ID. The CGNDB also only applies the name to the North island. (https://geonames.nrcan.gc.ca/search-place-names/unique?id=dad9a58baff311d892e2080020a0f4c9) I'm inclined to think it was a typo in the original data source you were using unless you have a reason to think otherwise, Martin868.
