Wondering if anyone can see a way to keep the same amount of refrigerator + freezer space (around 7 cubic feet) while expanding kitchen counter space. And what it might cost. https://streeteasy.com/building/47_-49-morton-street-new_york/2a I'd be happy to reduce to two stovetop burners and a small undercounter or countertop convection oven. That gets it partway there. Maybe open one of the closets... [more]

Get rid of stove and refrigerator. L-shaped counter. Use 2 under counter refrigerators and a cooktop with a built-in convection/microwave/hood above it.

If you could deal with slightly less than 7 cubic feet something like this gets you 6.3

I think I would put the above drawer refrigerator/freezer where the fridge/stove are, then a corner cabinet with a sink and then the cooktop where the sink is.

@30yrs 6.3 is decent - thanks for the suggestion. I don't know if they'd let me move the sink (wet over wet) but it's an elegant solution. How much do you think that would run using caesarstone + Ikea using a $200/hr contractor?
