I agree. I attempted to get a route for OHSU and PSU using various street addresses. I was not able to get a route for OHSU.

It seems as if you could save users time and effort if you were simply to map certain phrases to the addresses which correspond to them.

I noticed, for example, that if you type in "pdx", Google transit knows to look at Portland International Airport. Might not it be useful to include in this fashion certain other landmarks especially relevent to users of Portland public transit such as "Tualatin Park & Ride" or "PCC Sylvania"?
