                     (d) For purposes of subdivisions (a) and (c) of this section and section 11-245.1-b of this part, construction shall be deemed to have commenced on the date immediately following the issuance by the department of buildings of a building or alteration permit for a multiple dwelling (based upon architectural, [plumbing] and structural plans approved by such department) on which the excavation and the construction of initial footings and foundations commences in good faith, as certified by an architect or professional engineer licensed in the state, provided that the construction of such multiple dwelling has been completed without undue delay, as certified by such architect or professional engineer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a project includes new residential construction and the concurrent conversion, alteration or improvement of a pre-existing building or structure, construction shall be deemed to have commenced on the date immediately following the issuance by the department of buildings of an alteration permit for the multiple dwelling (based upon architectural, [plumbing] and structural plans approved by such department) on which the actual construction of such concurrent conversion, alteration or improvement of the pre-existing building or structure commences in good faith, as certified by an architect or professional engineer licensed in the state, provided that the construction of such multiple dwelling has been completed without undue delay, as certified by such architect or professional engineer.
