It includes a sink and dedicated restroom (currently not working) and window A/C units rather than central air. We'd keep the basement. This offer is reserved for HacDC until Thursday 9/10/2015.

			Upon further discussion there was general sense that the 3D Printing and HARC station would stay in the upstairs classroom, the woodworking, metalworking and laser cutter would move to the basement.
