Case 1 sounds like NC, Major renovation. Case 2 would likely be NC if the remaining 70% is to be occupied by the owner in the future, since they will control the build-out. If that remaining...

Is a concourse considered regularly occupied space?

Would the concourse area for passengers awaiting buses and trains be considered regularly occupied space? Since they are passengers and not workers, I'm unclear as to which way to go.

I'm not an expert on LEED-CS 2.0, but I would assume it's the same as NC. As we discuss in some more detail above under Checklists, you have to have some landscaping to be eligible for the credit. Planters can be landscaping.Part of the idea here is to not incentivize projects to earn the credit by paving over everything or installing artificial turf, ec.

Just wanted to share with other forum users...
