Would you please advise if one newly acquired floor of a 3-floor office eligible to get certified under LEED v.4 Commercial Interiors (see details below)?
- A company XYZ has been renting 2 adjacent floors in a large office building for the past 7 years.
- It is planning to expand and is going to rent one more floor at the same building adjacent to two others previously rented.
- The new floor is going to get renovated and comply to LEED v.4 CI requirements.
- Two "old" floors are going to get very minor alterations.
= Question: Is it allowed to certify only one floor among three floors that are rented by the same company since this newly acquired space will undergo a complete renovation?
Thank you.

Yes, I would say this is okay. The LEED language doesn't specify that there has to be a boundary in terms of ownership, only some distinct physical boundary.
