I'm all for removing them. Where should they go? Do you think someone
on Craigslist would take them? Or Urban Ore if we moved them
ourselves?
I bet we can find some other idiots to adopt them ;-)
I would like to transform that whole wall into a long countertop /
kitchenette with a sink, fridge and cabinets, microwave, coffee maker,
etc. We can bring plumbing through the basement easily. We can leave
space for a stove but it would be easier to get a permit without one.
Ooh - a kitchen sink would be a great addition! We really don't want people to use our lab sink to clean dishes etc, but sending them to the restroom sink for that always seems weird.
I wouldn't be so sure about being able to connect a drain through the basement "easily" though. I suspect that might require a good amount of breaking concrete. Worth getting a quote...
