Hi all!
Can I get any benefit from having green walls in my project, for the purpose of this credit?
P.S: It is a Previously Developed Area.

Probably not—you're not likely to be able to show that it is adequate to the standards of the credit, and it would be tricky to show equivalence in terms of area. You're welcome to make a case for it, though!

Marcio, LEED Interpretation #5385 states that green walls cannot be applied to the vegetation calculations for this credit. So that is a more definitive answer for you.
