If only the street name is given, with no house number, the casualties are often air-raid wardens, fire watchers, and members of other support services, on duty in the area. For more information, and the names and ages of casualties, see the more detailed list from which the above was taken.
The information above is correct to the best of my knowledge. Please let me know of any omissions or inaccuracies.
