Hi Razvan,
Storage space on below-grade levels is Building Service Area if it provides storage for the building and Occupant Storage Area if it is used by a tenant. Building Service Area is part of the Rentable Area of the building whereas Occupant Storage Area is excluded from Rentable Area.
Thanks,
David
