While working on a Leed certificate Project, Me and my team stumbled against a interpretation issue. Our Project is located on a historic site and also correlates to a historic building that is going to be preserved. We have the documentation proving that the Project is placed inside a historic site and also the documentation from a local equivalent for U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The question is, is there a percentage of preservation that has to be maintained, or being on a historic site and also declared a monument is valid to obtain the credits?

Hi Raisa, I'm not sure I fully understand the scenario you're describing, but maybe this addresses it? If the historic building that is being preserved is part of your LEED project, then you're good with Option 1. If it isn't within the LEED project, then you're not. Just being on the historic site and "correlated with" a historic building doesn't seem like it will get you there. Nadav
