How would the sidewalk length for the category "Sidewalk Intrusions" be measured for a project consisting of several buildings on a plaza.
There are no defined sidewalks and nor driveways on the plaza (all hardscape).
I would assume one sidewalk at the project boundary and one between each building.

On the whole, you need to be careful to have common terminology for project features across all submitted credits. Meaning, if it is a plaza, you should not call it a sidewalk for the purposes of a different credit (i.e. this pilot credit). Because you have indicated that the plaza does not have defined sidewalks, it would therefore not contribute towards compliance with the sidewalk intrusions requirement.
