FAQs about LTc2 :

When it comes to satisfying the requirements for Option 1, what does the "total buildable land" take into account? And the "total building area"?

Where do we measure the radius from? In LEED 2009, we measured it from the main entry, but the LEED v4 language is different.

CI-v4 LTc2:Surrounding density and diverse uses

Diverse uses outside the project boundary/ tenant fitout area but within the same building

Our project is a retail tenant located within a mall. I was wondering whether shops/ restaurants within the same mall where our projectis located but outside the project boundary/ tenant fitout ( eg restaurants, banks within the mall ) may count towards diverse uses ? Thanks

I contacted USGBC regarding a similar question, about a student union building on a college campus.  The response was that as long as each entity had its own front door, cash register, etc. then it could be counted as a different diverse use.  I agree that this approach meets the intent of the credit.  It was a v4 BD+C project.

What do you mean by front door? Different tenants or does it have to be street- facing entrances? Thanks

Hi,  Did you have an answer to your question, or submitted your documentation with this approach?  I'm currently analyzing a project in the same context, in which the entrances to the various shops open onto interior circulation areas.  Thanks,
