Basement Waterproofing - Outdated Sump Pump

It is clear that this homeowner was hoping to use this basement space for other purposes but until that big crack in the basement wall is repaired and the intruding water is controlled, it is too risky to finish anything here. The older sump pump that you can see in the corner can't handle the water problems that this Hazlet home was experiencing and it is a danger to any toddler that gets too close to that pit in the floor.
