Im documenting LEED credits for a building that re-uses an existing site in downtown area (the building footprint completely fills the site).
Thus, there are no vegetated areas (no green roof either).
Since there is nothing to irrigate, does this mean the credit can be achieved? Or is it not eligible?

only if you have at least 5% of the site landscaped... you'd have to use planters. Not sure if you have enough room for planters for 5% of the site area?
