Japanese term or phrase: 左記面積は第1棟のみの面積
How do I translate the sentence "左記面積は第1棟のみの面積" correctly? The sentence is independent by itself and not a part of a paragraph. It appears on the "remarks" column of a table. The topic is about the establishment of a datacenter by a Japanese company in Japan . Is the translation "The left side area is the area of first building" appropriate?

Sincerely appreciate any suggestions or inputs.

"The area mentioned in the left refers to the (total floor) area of Block 1 only."

It sounds like it's talking about the total floor area. If not, please ignore what's in the parenthesis.
