What would this new Wikibase have that OpenStreetMap doesn't already have?
The possibility of "talking" with WMF projects, as Wikidata "talks" with all the other projects...

Hi Amir,
anything which can be remotely considered as a tourist attraction, as well as shops, hotels, reataurants and such are withing the scope of Wikivoyage and thus of Wikidata. For streets, we have now an approved bot task adding all Dutch streets on Wikidata, and I do not see why any other country could be different - provided we have good sources.
I fear doing this is going to kill Wikidata. Neither the software nor the community scales to managing entries for every street in the world.
...and basically avoiding this for Wikidata.
