At the beginning of Back to the Future, it is clear that in 1985 Marty McFly knows where Doc Brown lives. Show Why then did he look up Doc Brown's address in a 1955 phone book? Doesn't he already know where the Doc lives? asked Nov 13, 2020 at 8:37
5 In the beginning of the movie, when we see all the clocks, there is a shot of framed newspaper clippings (the mansion burned down on August 1, 1962). Marty has probably read this at some point.  Doc's address in 1955 is shown as 1640 Riverside Drive: Doc's house we see in the beginning of the movie, in 1985, seems to be the garage of the mansion: Notice the number on the fence: It seems like in 1985, Doc is living in the garage of his former mansion, with the house number "1646", instead of "1640". Also, by 1985, Riverside Drive has been renamed John F. Kennedy Drive (this is mentioned in the scene where Marty has Dinner with the Baines family), which is why Marty doesn't recognize that it's basically the same address. answered Nov 13, 2020 at 14:45

He wouldn't need to ask where 1640 Riverside was if that was still Doc's address in 1985. answered Nov 13, 2020 at 8:56

It may be because of following reason: The 1985 Doc Brown lived in a house which was way smaller than the mansion which Doc has supposedly owned back in 1955. Maybe Marty knew that the mansion was burnt down and Doc who was once wealthy went broke.
But back in 1955 he owned a mansion and hence Marty sought phone book for Doc's address. But most importantly Marty was shell-shocked by the different/transformed(not yet developed) Hill Valley and didn't know where to look for Doc Brown. answered Nov 13, 2020 at 14:15
