building over an air shaft
Hi, We would like to possibly build out over our building’s airshaft to add a utility closet and laundry. We’re on the 2nd floor so there is no rough-in floor. But, the wall is a shared wall with the bathroom so we at least know there are some plumbing lines nearby. I know this is possible, but can’t begin to guess on what it would cost how it would work. We’d need to build a ceiling too. And what would the floor actually sit on?? Should we try to find an architect since some structural would be necessary? Overall, it is a fairly small space (~4′x4′) so would it really be worth all the money and effort? Has anyone done this before?
Thanks!
