numbers in urban blocks

Hello, In Tokyo, the administrative apportionment of districts is organized and numbered in urban districts and in urban blocks. So we find addresses like "5-6-23 XYZ-ku". In the same way as Google map allows to locate an address on a plan, is there a web site which proposes maps which give the geographical distribution of the numbering in an island or in a district? Thanks for you informations!

Could you give an example of what you're looking for? Your question is difficult to parse.
So we find addresses like "5-6-23 XYZ-ku".
No, you don't find addresses like that - there's usually a town (machi) name, a ku name, a city name and often a prefecture name.

Hello, I meant addresses like that :
Mr and Mrs ABCDEF A-B-C Higashi-Shimbashi Minato-ku, Tokyo Japan
I would like to know if there is a web site that gives maps with blocks and the numbers. Thanks for your tips!

Maybe mapion would be easier to understand? http://www.mapion.co.jp/Perhaps you could you give us an idea of what you're trying to do?

Note that addresses are not "logical", so even with a map like the one you describe, you still might have trouble. Just type the addresses into Google Maps.
