Is your brick floor on a concrete base or on a sand base? If
concrete, it will be a challenge to put in a floor drain; if on a
sand base, it will be fairly easy.
That said, keeping the floor damp will improve humidity if you heat
the space.
Re: your first post. If you hang enough fluorescent shop lights,
should provide you with adequate light for about anything. I'd say
at least one fan and maybe two. Good air circulation is really
important. Can you open a window for ventilation when outside air is
fairly warm?
