Hi @Stefan Somborac , @keyserholiday , @JoyHawkins or anyone else with this unique situation :)


Situation:
How to tell or show google maps that a building address has changed (or rather being rezoned)?

What Happened:
1) 101 US Highway 2000, City TX, 78787 (this was a 1 single house years ago)

2) 101 US Highway 2000 Building 1, City TX, 78787 (5 years ago, 4 buildings/warehouse/offices were added to this property) meaning:
101 US Highway 2000 Building 1
101 US Highway 2000 Building 2
101 US Highway 2000 Building 3
101 US Highway 2000 Building 4

were in use, but none of the lessees of the building used the Building number on maps, etc.
Many platforms only just use: 101 US Highway 2000
and all searches, etc go to that house or techncially building 1. Everyone else is screwed?

3) as of a few weeks ago, a new company bought the land/property and had to rezone everything with the county, etc. Now, the building numbers were changed to letters (and new buildings were added)

101 US Highway 2000 ( letters A to I are used now)

4) google knows of none of this.
google maps actually shows 5 buildings (via satelite image).
my client has building D, which actually shows on the satellite image.

So, how to convince google or tell google I'm correct and the whole internet is wrong, when it comes to the correct addresses of these buildings?

thanks for you thoughts and feeback.
I'm assuming there is an (official) way to do this?

But dealing with google maps support is very slow and confusing. It just seems getting this task accomplished is very hard?
 
Have you set up citations? If you have, update them. If you haven't set some up.

thanks... :)
in the process of updating.... FUN, I know!

your thoughts on timing or the order of TODOs?

1) update all the important citations (then wait ???)
2) then after X (days/weeks?) claim or update or edit, etc the GBP.

I'm assuming waiting longer is better than waiting shorter?
OR by chance, is there a "just do this ___ first, before claiming/editing a GBP"... no need to wait?

thanks again!
