There will still be a one-tile "hole" - this can be filled in various creative ways.

• Level Plot.
• Build a square of foundation for your hall.
• Wall it.
• Mark the corner with a red tile. It helps!
• Cheat: boolprop constrainfloorelevation false
• drop to basement level.
• raise the corner tile directly under your red square by 3 clicks.
  
• go up to the upper floor level.
• use floor tiles to level the floor there. This will pull the walls back down.
• 
  drop to basement level.
• Cheat: boolprop constrainfloorelevation true
• remove the foundation slabs immediately next to the raised tile.
• place lower flight of stairs on ground floor
• up a floor.
• Make sure there are four empty tiles to place staircase.
• Then drop stairs to red tile.
• You should now have a staircase. This is a good time to add bannisters (rails) and put a different tile on the landing (red) tile.
• Drop to ground level and level the ground under and around foundations.
  
• It is also possible to make a basement at this point, using techniques outlined in the Basements tutorials.
