Summary:
Several Squares that are obvious landmarks to locals, and which Apple Maps recognizes and matches as primary search results, are nonetheless treated as non-canonical by Siri.

Steps to Reproduce:
From a geoposition in the Boston area, ask Siri for directions to any of:

"Directions to Inman Square"
"Directions to Davis Square"
"Directions to Kendall Square"

Expected Results:
Directions to the high level landmark as represented by Apple Maps.

Actual Results:
A prompt including a list of several landmarks that contain the name in them. For example "Inman Square Hardware".

By contrast, asking for "Directions to Harvard Square" works as expected.
