Is there a way to identify buildings wich are placed in corners?

Hi, I looked for any post regarding this issue but couldn’t find any.

Is there a way to look into OSM for features (buildings, amenities, shops…) that are placed among two or more highways? For exemple, (271625829) is simultaneously on 5th Avenue and East 127th Street. I need to retrieve this info somehow.

Thank you in advance

Hi and welcome to OSM and the forum

There is no tag “This is a building on a street corner” in OSM. In rare cases there might be 2 entrance-nodes on the building with different address (street names). You will need to develop you own algorithm.

Thank you very much, @PHerison, I’ll look into it and share with the community.
