A Look at Office Buildings
Are they on multibuilding complexes?
How do they use energy and how much does it cost?
Are they on multibuilding complexes?
Twenty-eight percent of office buildings (197 thousand) are located on a multibuilding campus or complex (two or more buildings on the same site, owned or operated by a single organization, business or individual).
For 69 percent of the office buildings that are part of a multibuilding complex, the type of complex is given as "other." The 1995 CBECS questionnaire did not include "office complex" as a type of multibuilding campus or complex, so presumably many of these "other" complexes are office complexes.
Fifteen percent of office buildings found on a multibuilding complex are on hospital or other health care complexes; 7 percent are on "other government" complexes ("other government" meaning other than post office or prison); and 3 percent are on college campuses.
