Option 2 of the Location and Transportation Credit, Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses, requires that the project's main entrance be within a 1/2-mile walking distance of at least seven operational and publicly accessible uses. The existing fast-food restaurant without a drive-in service, being only 1/8 mi. away, meets the criteria for proximity and is considered a diverse use under this credit1.
