Sure:
$ python3
Python 3.4.3 (default, Feb 12 2016, 15:58:12)
[GCC 4.9.3] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> ['George',
... 'Soros',
... ['99 First Street',
... '33 Broadway Avenue', ['Apt 303'],
... '1 Park Avenue'],
... 'New York', 'NY']
['George', 'Soros', ['99 First Street', '33 Broadway Avenue', ['Apt 303'], '1 Park Avenue'], 'New York', 'NY']

I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by "goes with".

Use the "del" operator:
>>> foo = ['George',
... 'Soros',
... ['99 First Street',
... '33 Broadway Avenue', ['Apt 303'],
... '1 Park Avenue'],
... 'New York', 'NY']
>>> foo
['George', 'Soros', ['99 First Street', '33 Broadway Avenue', ['Apt 303'], '1 Park Avenue'], 'New York', 'NY']
>>> del foo[2][2]
>>> foo
['George', 'Soros', ['99 First Street', '33 Broadway Avenue', '1 Park Avenue'], 'New York', 'NY']

I don't think I understand what your problem is.
