Thanks Sean. I just keep plugin' away. A little bit every day gets the job done.

Another suspended shelf and a new furnace.

Shelf installed. I've been storing all this old Dexion and plywood for years. Never throw anything out, lol.

Foamers were back today.

Pulled the old ceiling down, hung some temp lights & removed the last of the '40's wiring. Next, foam insulation and suspended shelves.

I have no idea what they put on the roof. They hot mopped a layer then flame sealed a top layer. It no longer rains on the inside, :). The bench is 30" by 10'6" and is 3 1/4" thick. The 3 legs are cast iron. It's very heavy, ;). I've been sidetracked lately doing house renovations.

Added white hardboard and new light fixtures. Refurbed the old workbench. Framed the door openings. And lots of paint.

Spray foamed the ceiling and replaced the floor.

'Twas a busy winter. Emptied the back room and pulled down the ceiling.

The old concrete floor is removed.

Looks good, except every time it rains, it fills up with water.

On the inside they built a 2x6 and plywood floor. They neglected to install a drain. Floor removal.

I an so slack. I completely forgot to upload the latest progress. So here goes. So here is what has happened over the years. Sometime ago, the county raised the road. So the garage owner was forced to raise the level of the parking lot. The pavement trapped water and rotted the block...

2" rigid foam board laid directly on the concrete floor. T&G 5/8th plywood secured to the concrete. Glue can also be used. Insulate the outside of the knee wall, if you can.
