This is more of a comment than a question. In this fitness facility project, the owner asked why the credit, Quality Views in Nonregularly Occupied Spaces, was not a prerequisite for all projects. Her comment was that fitness isn't just about being in a safe and comfort facility but also one that inspired the mind. She was emphatic that views during a workout were essential and made it an imperative for the design team.

Oh interesting. I would assume the actual workout areas are considered occupied; the Pilot credit is for the non-regularly occupied areas, like stairwells.
I wouldn't mind seeing this strategy available as an "and/or" option under the regular Views credit.

Should have been more clear. She meant throughout all spaces. Yes, the workout areas are regularly occupied. Good suggestion to have this pilot become an Option under the Quality Views credit.
