Change was made by Postmistress Elizabeth Van Lew, appointed I believe
by President Grant, who took office in 1869, so I'm guessing that it
would be sometime after March.

Going  through various City Directories, I see a change of house
location information sometime between 1866-1869.  A house listed on a
side of a street near a corner all of the sudden is give it own unique
number.

What year did this take place?
