Hello,
I have quite a simple sentence I want to say in Russian -
'The post office is on that street'
What I mean by 'on' is that the post office is along that street, meaning the person should walk along that street to find it.
At first, I thought I might need to use prepositional, but then according to a website I found there's another set or irregular prepositional endings used with the preposition на, or that I should use accusative case with it.
Here's is what I read on the website -
Then I read that I should use 'у' instead, because this would make more sense in this context as the post office is on the side of the road, not on the road itself!
Now I'm a bit confused!

Irregular: it has the ending у. We use it ONLY when meaning "location" (with prepositions в/на):
Моя книга была в саду = My book was in the garden.
