EBOM-2009 IEQc2.4:Daylight and Views

Cube Partition height 46"

My project has large floor to ceiling windows but the cube height is 46". Someone with an eye level of 42" can see sky, clouds, trees and hilltops above the 46" high cube walls. But their line of sight is not horizontal. Is the 46" cube height a fatal flaw or do we have a chance at this credit? Thx

Lucky you, check out LEED Interpretation #10254 which specifies that the view doesn't have to be horizontal. This also applies to EBOM v2009. https://www.usgbc.org/leedinterpretations/LISearch.aspx?liaccessid=10254

Thanks Kimberly, Glad to hear it's finally been clarified. Not so lucky though, I'm working on an EBOM 2008 project so it looks like we are not eligible.
