See if there's anything of use in the OLD RESTAURANT.

... Hm. They left the fixtures, but what's more troubling to you is that this seems to be a nest of some kind and you can't find the ANIMAL IT BELONGS TO. And it's not any animal you're familiar with, either. It's a CAT PAW, but it's too big for a FERAL DOMESTIC or even a WILD MANX and it's too cold for LION or TIGER.
At the same time you're pretty sure you can get these fixtures free, and the copper and brass will be useful; and of course the metals in the EXHAUST FAN are of use to anyone.
Even better, most of the WIRING is intact; if you wanted you could go ahead and rip that out too.
Your main problems are going to be TIME- ripping the wires, removing the fixtures, all that stuff- and GETTING IT TO THE TENEMENT. It's not so much that it's HEAVY- you can deal with HEAVY through PSYCHOKINESIS if you have to- as that it's BULKY, and OBVIOUS. Most things don't want to bother with HUMANS- they smell bad- but... You wouldn't put it past an injured or sick PREDATOR to make a go of it.
... You smell OZONE. Which is odd, because you know there's no POWER GENERATION and even if there were the GRID IS NOT INTACT.
