The word ‘across’ is most often a preposition. It can also be a locative adverb or adverb particle.
Often the meaning is ‘opposite’:
We‘ll be right across from you.
Tagging doesn’t always get it right. THIS IS NOT A PHRASAL VERB (come across something). For example:
Police think the single shot came from across the street.
1 (II)
As a preposition, ‘across’ precedes a noun phrase. Obviously, the next word will most often be an article.
