public area renovation ends
Major physical changes to various parts of the public areas of a building's interior space are completed.
Renovation of a structure's public areas ends when a project affecting the overall physical or cosmetic substance of its public or shared tenant areas is completed. This includes areas like the lobby, hallways, stairways, amenity rooms, mail room, parking areas, observation areas, and other areas where anybody entering the building can go freely.
The completed project concerns the overall physical or cosmetic condition of public or shared tenant spaces. Tenant-only shared spaces can be included without being open to the outside public.
Total renovation ends includes tenant areas as well as common areas throughout the structure. Public-area renovation has the narrower shared-space scope and its own beginning.
