I think it probably would cover adaptability. Adaptability of buildings is something one has to think of as one plans construction and plan communities. As was referenced earlier on, one must plan to be able to adapt building stock within communities so one is not breaking up communities and saying to people that once they reach an elderly age they must go somewhere else when they still want to live in that community. As such, adaptability of buildings is quite important.
