Inquiry

The project consists of two new buildings on a campus. The two buildings abut a large green space with gardens and outdoor areas of respite. Both buildings will be pursuing LEED certification and have considered using the LEED guide for campuses. The guide mentions sharing amenities like open space, but is not specific to how these should be shared. Please advise if the open space amenity on this project can be claimed by both buildings. It is a shared amenity that both projects will use as open space and is equal in size to the footprint of both buildings. There is no zoning requirement for open space on the campus.
