Hebrew term or phrase: שכ עין כרם א
This is part of a street address in Jerusalem.
Is it a street or a neighborhood? What would be a correct English spelling?

Thank you

Notes to answerer
Asker: I know this neighborhood (שכונה), but what is the meaning of aleph here? There is also a street of this same name.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  David Greenberg: The aleph indicates that the address is located on an unnamed street, and therefore a lettered zone is given. If you search Google Maps, you'll find an equivalent phenomenon in case of 'עין כרם ב. It isn't an unnamed street: that would be numberered.

Asker: It sounds correct, but, as far as I know, this terminology is normally used by real estate people. Can it be used as a street address?
