CS-2009 MRc1:Building Reuse—Maintain Existing Walls, Floors and Roof

Project GFA excluding underground parking areas?

During the registration process of the project and in the Project Information Form “PI f 2 – Project Summary Details” we were/are asked to indicate the total project gross floor area with an exclusion of all parking areas. This information is automatically linked with the credit form “MR c 1 – Building Reuse – Maintain existing walls, floors and roof”. On the project site the six existing underground levels are located. The existing structure will be reused and the underground parking will be located there. Please advise if we can calculate the total area of the building including the existing parking area using “Special circumstances” path? Thank you in advance!

I could go either way with how the information is entered, as long as you explain your approach in the narrative.

I have a very similar situation with one of my projects. I'm curious what GBCI's ruling was for this project as it relates to MRc1. Were you awarded the points? Thanks.
