The word address should be plural here. So, addresses is the correct word usage. This is not a possessive. There is some tendency to get confused with the words that end in s too. There is a good episode of Seinfeld on this. Sorry, but I couldn’t underline or italicize the name of the show.

But the word ends with an “s,” so isn’t the apostrophe OK?

Nouns ending in s, z, ch, sh, and x call for an “es” in the plural form. This added syllable makes pronunciation easier.
