Sorry for using a burner, but I think this is definite now.
See here for physical size reference of CPP, Bucks and Little Red fox, which are all side by side roughly the same size with the exception of CPP which has an area on the back about the same size as the front unit. See http://sli.mg/vh11Cd (with a size reference in the bottom right)
For reference here is info for the building next door Little Red Fox is 1530 square foot http://archive.is/ehWqp
CPP is listed as being 3925 square feet see http://archive.is/9gzzh but have a look at the map view of this one story building. Back of the envelope math says that should run up to about 3000 square foot - this is nearly a full 1k square foot short of what is visible.
Now have a look at Bucks this is where it gets interesting http://archive.is/zRk7w a whopping 4.5k square foot for a building that looks the same size as Little Red Fox.
Another point that really needs some weight but is speculative is that CPP building is much older than bucks, being built in 1932 during prohibition. Tunnels were commonly used to transport liquor during that time and he salvaged the old liquor store sign. more info at https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1456194

Sorry if my comment here is a little bit off the main search for details of a possible basement at CPP, but in looking around for related info I've had quite an education on subterranean Washingon DC. I'm not familiar with the city and perhaps the following is already known to many but it was new to me and certainly put the whole tunnel thing into perspective for me:*
I came across this interesting article The Underground City beneath the US Capital and Library of Congress which includes a brief summary of the layout of the various tunnels. Cannon Tunnel caught my eye because of the children's art on the walls and following the link to the Congressional Art Competition was instructive too. This year's winner from District 7 can be seen here : District 7 winner.*
More information on the various tunnels can be found in An A-mazing Guide. Definitely worth a read. Including titbits like the newest tunnel addition which is the Capitol Visitor Center basement which is split into 3 floors. The first floor is reserved for member meetings that require privacy and is also the U.S. Capitol Police’s new home base. *
I never realized that Washingtonians spent so much time underground.

Interestingly from a PM from someone who didnt want their name on this apparently "They were first dug out to be used to connect the ring of Forts that surrounded DC during the Civil war." - though I have not yet had any time to verify any details on this. So there tunnels, old tunnels, older tunnels and really old tunnels.
