you're differentiating this sufficiently from apartment number, right?
because I see a street address belonging to an apartment complex,
then an apartment number belonging to an individual apartment.
If you are saying the HNO is the street address "number" (and not
confused by the apartment number) - then this generalization is agreeable.
