Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to set up a linked revit site plan in your building model and have them open to work on at the same time?

Yes.

- Open your building model with the linked Revit site on it.
- Launch a second instance of Revit (yes, you will have two Revit running at the same time)
- On the second Revit instance, open the site file (the same that's linked on the building model)
-You can work with both. Changing the site won't update automatically on your building model file containing the site linked. You have to go to File > Manage Links > Revit > Reload.

But it is faster than using one instance of Revit. Using only one instance, if you want to edit the linked file, you have to unload the linked file first, then open it to edit and then reload it...
