Best Practice: Create a spin-off interior project from core and shell project
Saw your question at the RevitForum site first. Wrote this there:
Assuming that there is only so much a tenant can do to change the core and shell of the building, I'd be inclined to link that model into a new project. I'd build the interior model so the level is at the same elevation as the one in the shell. In other words I'd change Level 1 to be the same elevation...and the floor(s) below/above adjusted accordingly for context in sections or elevations if necessary/useful.
Avoid modeling things in the core/shell that the tenants can change. If you can't avoid it...just be prepared to modify the core/shell model with Design Options to have a way to keep them but hide them from your interior project. That way the construction process isn't altered but there can be views set to show certain options to eliminate those things from the same area of your interior project using the By Linked Views approach.

That way I can link the interior project's model to the core/shell model later if desired using the option Auto-Origin to Origin and it will land at the correct elevation. If not I'd have to move it up to the correct elevation after linking. Besides it is supposed to be inside that shell so having levels that correspond to it seems reasonable to me.
