It's worth noting that Google Maps is not able to find that particular address at 2721 Panhandle Drive Suite 200, Denton, TX 76201
.
As previously mentioned, this support channel is for reporting issues with the Google Maps APIs. With that said, the documented and supported method of sharing directions in Google Maps (ie. maps.google.com) is documented here:
You can also find help with Google Maps via the Google Maps community:

Maybe the info appears as a nested object? e.g. "popular times" > "day of week" > "hour of day" > traffic count

Please open a separate issue for this particular address to be investigated if necessary.

This is a fundamental problem with the directions page not being able to handle subpremises, and it affects many addresses. I gave you only one example, and there are plenty of others.
And here's your new official format exhibiting the same problem...

The issue does not seem to affect the
10900 Founders Way Suite 103, Fort Worth, TX 76244 100 Bourland Road Ste 100, Keller, TX 76248 4701 Boat Club Road Suite 200, Fort Worth, TX 76135
These URLs perform a search operation, which successfully resolves the address to a single location and redirects to its place page.
Using this may be a better workaround than attempting to remove the subpremise terms from addresses; using the Directions button from these place's would allow the user to choose whether to get directions from their current location (as detected by their device) or a different locations (in case they intend to start the trip from a different location or their device is not detecting their location accurately enough).
Otherwise, removing the subpremise terms appears to consistently mitigate the issue in the

It is also worth noting that when the directions page fails, hitting the magnifying glass icon next to the destination address also fails to find the destination by its address.
Side note 1:
Side note 2: the following URLs are not supported and subject to change without notice; these are not an API:
is a search that may lead to multiple results, a single one, or none.maps.google.com/maps/search/Panhandle%20Drive is a place page that shows a single place. When a search leads to a single result, it usually redirects to the place page of that one result (maps.google.com/maps/place/... ).example are directions... and seem to behave in less intuitive/predictable ways.maps.google.com/maps/dir/...
Description
We want to be able to link directly to the directions page so the visitor can enter their location and get directions to a location.
