Yes, I agree, I certainly couldn't find any record of a "John's Terrace" so it must be St John's.
The more I think about it, the more confident I am that it's the right family. We have now established not only that John Caldwell the confectioner and John Coldwell were one and the same person, but that this man was living in Brady Street, at a location within that street which makes perfect sense in relation to the newspaper story, in the crucial year of 1888. And we know that a John Coldwell (whose brother was a former confectioner) had an 11-year-old daughter called Charlotte.
So it's all looking really good. Not to mention that John Coldwell was the son-in-law of a Charles Cross!
