Hi everyone. I am making a pre-assessment for a building that will be a part of a new neighborhood which will be a transformation of an old industrial area. It will be the first asset to be developed, so currently, there is not much more in the area of which will be a full neighbourhood but the entire masterplan is owned by the same company.
The building is a restoration of an old industrial building and it takes up almost the entire plot. In the open space credit for LEED v4, it is mentioned that for projects that are a part of a multitenant complex: "Open space can be either adjacent to the building or at another location in the site master plan." In the overall masterplan of the neighborhood, there are plenty of open spaces, but for the exact building, there is not an open space.
So now the questions are:
1) Does the above also apply to v4.1?
2) If the development of the entire neighbourhood is expected to be done in 10-12 years, can I already now count the Open Space areas for the master plan as a part of this building so I can achieve this credit?
Any input is most welcome, thanks in advance.
