Have you tried reporting it? My parents recently moved into a new house built one year prior and I reported it a few days after they moved in. It took about 9 months, but they finally added the road in and populated ALL the addresses on the street, not just the one I reported.
Google maps still does not have the roads or street numbers listed. Just wanted to throw that out there.
Edit: Also want to add that it has been two years since my parents moved in. Went in to Waze Map Editor and added the road myself, so their turnaround time was instant. Apple Maps took 9 months, like I said, but Google Maps still has no info on the street despite having all the houses in clear satellite view.

I'm not sure what an appropriate turn around time would be on something like this. But I do think it's less than "years".
- spsful 6y agoJust read your reply. That's very frustrating to read -- hopefully the Apple employees come to their senses and add the building soon. It's also weird that they called you through FaceTime and still did nothing. Either way, sorry to hear about all the frustration you've been through.
- protomyth 6y agoWhat's the point of reporting anything to the Apple Maps team? I've reported stuff for a few years, and it hasn't changed nor have they had the basic courtesy to acknowledge the report. It's not like it's some street address thing, they are missing a whole town.
- chipotle_coyote 6y agoI've gotten changes made by reporting stuff to the Apple Maps team. I remember years ago, my company's business location didn't show up correctly. I reported it, and within a week it showed up incorrectly in an entirely different way!
- Reason077 6y agoI’ve reported issues with POIs in the UK via the in-app features (“Edit Location” and “Report an issue”) and they were fixed within a few days. In general, Google still has better POI data than Apple Maps in the UK, but the gap has closed a lot in recent years.
