Some different streets in Boston use same names, suggest differentiate through zip codes about voiceapp311 HOT 2 CLOSED

Boston contains some streets with the same names and different zip codes. Thus, some street names in Boston are not unique. When using the app powered by Recollect (https://www.boston.gov/trash-day-schedule), it is possible to specify different zip codes, which in some cases are on different trash schedules. For instance:
50 Washington Street, Boston 02129 (Wed trash day)
50 Washington Street, Boston 02121 (Mon trash day)
50 Tremont Street, Boston, 02129 (Wed trash day)
50 Tremont Street, Boston, 02135 (Thurs trash day)
1 Arcadia Street, Boston, 02119 (Friday trash day)
1 Arcadia Street, Boston, 02122 (Tues trash day)

Perhaps, in cases like these where street names are not unique, Alexa could prompt the user for the zip code to help it choose the appropriate trash day.

Hi guys,

On my local repo I made some changes on my own branch that eliminate the need for street-address in address_utils.py by making changes to that file and google_maps_utils.py such that it now (in my branch) queries the Google Maps Find Place API (not used before) to get a correctly formatted address. My rationale is that Google's systems could do the address parsing well enough that we wouldn't have to worry about it with a separate module. This would make the task of the zip code much easier (among others), but I'm not sure if it makes sense for the project as a whole. I can push my changes (on a branch called "abe") and you can let me know what you think?

Best,
Abe
