Recessed Alcove

Gail Phillips: GVP LAW; March 17, 2016

A retail space has a outdoor, roof covered alcove recessed from the front building line. Is this outdoor area included in calculating rentable square footage?

David Fingret: Extreme Measures Inc.; March 23, 2016

The outdoor area would be excluded from the Gross Leasable Area and included as Ancillary Space and charged for separately under a separate agreement.
