I am looking to pursue the Option 2 "Diverse Uses" method. In Appendix 1 (Use Types and Categories) that this option references, under the category "Community Anchor Uses," is the use "Housing (100 or more dwelling units)." Must these dwelling units be contained all in one building to qualify as a use for this credit? If not, do they have to be contained within a single development? Or can they be a combination of residential sites scattered throughout the 1/2 mile walking distance from the site?

Hi Kevin,
In the Reference Guide in Appendix 1, the only Community anchor uses I see in the table is Commercial office (100 or more full-time equivalent jobs). Can you direct me to where you are seeing the Housing line item?
