Hi. This is a new 5000sqft office building within an industrial site. This new building will be attached to the main process area. At this moment everything surrounding the main process area is an asphalt road. Question is, when they build the office building, if they install a walkway surrounding the new building and I delineate my LEED boundary around the walkway, can I earn this credit if I install a high SRI material on the walkway?
Also, can I take credit for the alternative transportation - parking capacity, due to the fact that I'm not building any new parking space?. Regardless that the industrial plant has a parking lot. Technically it will be out of my LEED boundary.

If there is existing parking but you don't add parking, you can claim no new parking.As far as setting the project boundary, you should review the LEED MPRs. You have to include land that supports normal operations for the building, which may include parking.
