Just looked over the whole map with 150 to 200 listed. You need to be a bit more specific. Like near: urb. Jardines Dorado or Cerro Alto. Anything: like N,S,E or W of the monument. Near what major road. Detailed maps of Santiago are hard to find. I showed my map of Santiago to a publico driver i know and he could not find his barrio and I had it marked with a small asterik on the map.

Ok..now I am on a roll.

All I have is Calle 1ERA Manzana B Edif

I am guessing it is somewhere near the Airport in Santiago

After Los Alamos/Monte Verde not many barrios listed on the map till it ends before the airport heading down Autopista Duarte. Might be listed on some map but doubt it will show the streets. I have found places on Google Earth that are not listed on the map. Not sure when this one came out but it was bought in SD over 5 years ago. Have not been able to find the same one in Santiago.

A direct translation would be 1st St., Block B and apparantly "edif" is short for edificio, which means building. Therefore, this appears to be a business address. You are going to have to provide the area of the town or business name to get any further.
