Inquiry

An existing residence is currently located on the site of the proposed LEED certified Admission Building on the Cate School campus. A minimum of 75% of the existing residence\'s structure and envelope will be moved to a nearby location on the Cate School campus and maintained/renovated as a new residence. The new LEED-NC certified Admission Building will be built on the former site of the relocated residence. Cate School is choosing to extend the life of an existing building, conserving resources, retaining a cultural resource on campus, reducing waste and reducing environmental impacts. While the relocated residence is not being renovated directly into the new Admission Building, the relocation and maintenance of the existing residence meets the credit intent. Proposed documentation will include: 1. Campus Plan showing location of both buildings 2. LEED-NC Site Plan for Admission Building 3. Architectural Plans of existing residence to be relocated 4. Completed LEED MRc1.1 Letter Template 5. Photographs of relocated residence
