DOWN? down the road? I heard this word very so often. such as "down the road","down the hall" etc. I look it up in the dictionary, it gets a lot of meanings,one is "along the course or path of something". So when people saying "down the street", does it mean "the site of build is somewhere along the street, you only need to go along the street then you'll find it." or "the build is located at the end of this street,it's the last one"?

It's equivalent to 'along', or 'further along'. You'll read/hear 'up the street' too, sometimes, which is the same thing. The distance is indeterminate. It is not the 'end of the street'.
