The pyparsing examples page includes a street address parser (http://
pyparsing.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/streetAddressParser.py) that
will handle these test cases:

    100 South Street
    123 Main
    221B Baker Street
    10 Downing St
    1600 Pennsylvania Ave
    33 1/2 W 42nd St.
    454 N 38 1/2
    21A Deer Run Drive
    256K Memory Lane
    12-1/2 Lincoln
    23N W Loop South
    23 N W Loop South
    25 Main St
    2500 14th St
    12 Bennet Pkwy
