Aim and Benefits:
Proximity to amenities is a surprisingly valuable asset to a building. Having local shops, café’s, deli’s and parks close by to a development adds increased value to the tenant as the inhabitants will be happier when socialising, taking lunch or exercising. Hence why it is a benefit in BREEAM with credits awarded.
