[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. We can't do a legal unit because we are in the historic district and our facade doesn't work with adding a front entrance. [/quote] I would echo the others: if you are going through the trouble of doing this go down far enough to make it legal usable space. That will likely require underpinning, but you could be surprised and not have to do any foundation work. Do the neighbors on either side have finished basements? Minimum height is only 7' for finished ceiling (and support beams can drop lower than that).[/quote]
