One of our clients is interested in certifying a portion of their new
building under LEED-CI. Can an owner complete a LEED-CI project in
their own building?
The rest of the building would not be certified under LEED-NC, while
obviously encouraged, this isn't a requirement for the typical tenant
build-out. The wording in the CI rating system doesn't specifically
mention the possibility for an owner to be their own tenant.
Any thoughts?
Separate question: anyone coming to IBPSA meeting Saturday morning and
want to split transportation from LaGuardia let me know, ~10:30am. My
default will be to try out the metropolitan transportation authority
since I haven't experienced that before.
