Removing a garage cleanly

Project A Task 4: remove the existing garage from the bottom right of the plan, keeping the rest of the layout unchanged as far as possible. A simple modification, so the focus is minimal intervention and a clean resolved plan.

Copy the entire layout and place it beside the original, so the original stays available as a reference while the work happens on the copy.

Revit warns on the copy because dimensions and other elements are attached to the initial plan. Since this is a working copy, those can be ignored.

First disconnect the garage from the rest of the house. A door currently connects the gallery to the garage, so delete that first — it makes sure no unnecessary connection is left between the former garage area and the house once the garage is gone.

With the garage disconnected, remove the elements belonging to it. Start with the independent walls, since they affect none of the surrounding spaces — clearing those first opens up the garage footprint without disturbing the rest of the plan.

Then remove the remaining garage-specific elements: the room tags and the garage door.

With the garage gone, the dining room exterior wall and the primary bedroom walls project beyond the remaining boundary. Clean that up with AL — select the boundary wall as the reference, then align each projecting wall to it, and repeat for the primary bedroom wall.

That gives a clean, continuous exterior edge without changing the surrounding spaces. The garage is completely removed and the rooms around it are intact.
