Hello.
Please note that if a business is closed, it's much better to use lifecycle prefix as documented in osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix, or at the very least simply delete business-specific tags but leave the address node intact. That way you preserve the history of that node and that address is still searchable and routable. If you delete nodes both of those things are gone.

Also please note that you can not use Google Maps to get information about businesses. Please see this article for more detailed explanation on why osm.wiki/Google

archavi still creates trans-Atlantic bbox and to get to that link you need to have a list of changesets in your area of interest, and afaik all the available tools also still create similar bbox.

Hello.
You based your edit on Maxar imagery. Is it the newest imagery available? Bing, Ersi and Maxar all show different things and hard to tell which one is newest..

NYMM, so you added your customer, but you didn't even bother to update the building your customer is in? You are pretty bad at your job.

Hello.
As I commented in changeset/120417933, please do not map the same features twice, as building polygon and a node. This ambulance station is already tagged on the building itself.
Please see this article for more details: osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

URL to a 3rd party website is not a description. Furthermore, this kind of info should go on OHM, not OSM.

Satellite imagery shows there's a shared bike lane. Is that no longer the case?

Hello.
Sidewalks on this street are already mapped as separate paths, as such this tag should be "separate" rather than "both".

Hello.
Could you please provide some additional information on this business? On street imagery this appears to be a 5-story apartment building, not a brewery..

Hello.
What "street level imagery" did you use? I see this is Three Star Billiards, not King Billiards.

By all means, improve the map. Starting off around the area that you know best is the easiest way. However, because so many different things use OSM, it has specific ways of doing things, reasons for which might not be obvious right away. But with a little bit of practice you'll figure it out. 👍

If you have Android phone, you can also use StreetComplete app to fill in a lot of missing details as you walk around during this great weather.

Ultimately OSM is a database of geo data which can be used to generate maps, among with many other uses. You were looking at the map using the stock map style. However, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of different map styles that display labels in different manner (some don't even display labels).
The only thing you as a mapper should be concerned about is for the data to be as accurate as possible, not for it to look pretty. How the data is displayed should be a concern of data consumers, such as map tile generators.
When you map an address or a business, it should be positioned within perimeter of the relevant building, preferably closer to the main entrance. This way search, navigation and routing will actually direct you where to go, not some random spot in the middle of a block.
(Unless you are doing indoors mapping, but that's not the case here.)

Hello.
Please note this is an invalid edit and going to be reverted. It is WRONG to move nodes purely so that their labels show up in whatever map style you are using. What you are doing is tagging for renderer, and that is wrong. Please read this article for more information osm.wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer

If it's not already mapped, perhaps add that fence/gate?

Where all this data is coming from? This looks very spammy and I'm leaning towards deleting it all.
