The whole reason the upstairs bathroom remodel was important, is because the downstairs bathroom that is mainly used had started leaking through the shower pan a while back. Well it got worse and worse, so now that the upstairs is functional the downstairs had to come apart.
What you’re looking at is what is left of a 4 x 6, sistered with a 2 x 6. Would rot is a bitch.

Nothing to do with the shower leak,the opposite corner has sunken almost a inch.
