A project will include underground parking. This change can have a positive impact on what issue?
A
Pedestrian access
B
Community connectivity
,C
Parking capacity
D
Heat island effect - correct answer D
Heat island effect
The heat island effect would be reduced because the parking has been moved underground. The parking
capacity would remain unchanged. Pedestrian access to the surrounding buildings and services would
not be affected. The heat island effect is created when developed areas have higher temperatures than
surrounding rural areas. An urban heat island effect is caused by sunlight heating up dark colored
surfaces such as roads and rooftops. Huge quantities of heat are generated in buildings that have dark
rooftops and absorb heat rather than reflect it. LEED defines a heat island as one whose temperatures
are at least 10 degrees higher than those of surrounding suburban or rural areas.
