addressing invites blahhhhhhh

how do you spell out 160th Street.

i wanna see what you girls say..

and when addressing to a P.O. Box.. do you spell out Post Office Box?

thanks!

I would not spell out 160th street. I didn't and I had many like that as the FH is from Brooklyn ... I consider my invitations to be formally prepared so think it's ok.

I also would not spell out P.O. Box.

Hmmm lets type it out and see

Mr. Joseph Shmo
123 One Hundred Sixtieth Street
New York, New York 10000

hmmmm my instinct is to go with the second - but i think tradition states go with the first. its hard when your dealing with the 'hundreds' though.

if we were talking 45th I'd say spell it out ...lolol i dont know i'm a girl who cant decide which spatula to put on my registry lately!!! :) :) good luck!

honestly.. this addressing invites business has me wanting to eat my own arm or something

agreed...i had many with streets in the 100s & just wrote it as a number. You could spell out post office box to keep it formal, but i dont think anyone would notice or care, they will just be happy to get the invite.

When I lived on E. 89th Street, some people used to write it out. (111 East Eighty-Ninth Street) and others just wrote out the East (111 East 89th Street).
