[Chicago] Address parser?

[Lukasz Szybalski]

The format is somewhat the same.

I have a list of body shops:
street address, city ,state, zip
for which I need the map (google maps I think will be a good choice)

When I map my database a user will input his address and he will be
able to see body shops in his location.
Now sure if that is what you mean by format but the address would be
in USA. Not sure how different that is from Canada.
