How should we name this road? It was originally added to the map 7 years ago as "8 Avenue SW/SE" but about a year ago was changed to "8 Avenue SW/SE;Stephen Avenue", reflecting that the pedestrian street here is referred to as both 8th and Stephen. In fact street signs from 4 St SW to Macleod Trail say both (e.g. https://streetchic.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/StephenAve1-495x400.jpg). "Stephen Avenue" was the original name and as such it's been added here as the "old_name" as has been done with many others in Downtown Calgary (9th Ave was Atlantic Ave, 7th Ave was McIntyre, 6th was Angus, etc.) but in this case it is not merely the "old_name" as it's still commonly used.

Do we change the name back to "8 Avenue SW/SE;Stephen Avenue"? Personally I think that's too awkward. Do we add one or the other as the "alt_name", even though neither really has much precedence over the other?

several features need to be identified and tagged - looks like this area may be community association, so facilities are "private"
