Two boxes that are adjacent to one another on Times Square are Box 803 @ W44st and 7th, which has E54 as first due Engine, and Box 796 @W43 st and 7th, which has Engine 65 as first due.

My question, is at what point on 7th Ave would an address become a 796 box from an 803 box, is box 803 any address on 7th south of W43 st, and any address south from W44st to W43 is classed as Box 803??

Taking the outlet 'Sephora' for instance, that has an address on 7th ave as '5 Times Square', this lies on 7th, midway between Box 803 at W44and 7th and 796 at W43 and 7th, would this be an E65 box for 796 or an E54 box for 803??

Thanks if anyone can help.

Going to take a stab at this and say about mid block.

Thats the way the old address cards were made up,there happens to be a box on both corners of the address so this would apply,on street addresses with a box on only one corner the address might be assigned to a box around the corner,in that case the cutoff point might be towards the end of the block.  Hope this helps
