The Saga Continues

Just look at this stylish, not-quite-level, not-quite-tall-enough vanity:

Yes, that's brown formica with granite inexpertly glued over it:

Here's most of the vanity (I deduced that, from the "Lot #18" scrawled on the underside of the top, it was original to the 1981 construction of the house), in the trash:

I enjoyed slicing it up with my electric saw. Part of it was mushy from rot.
Here is what remains. I need to replace some of the subflooring:

This whole project has been more of an archaeological dig than a home improvement project. I'm penetrating through layers of stupidity and laziness. Why was the vanity not tall enough? The granite floor is glued over at least one layer of something else. The vanity stood there while shitty flooring was built up around it.

Was all this the work of Junious or some previous owner?

There's no way to be sure. I've decided to simply blame everything on him regardless.
