Hi Everyone,

The basement of the house was recently spray foam insulated. It appears the previous owners just had this old window foamed in, and called it a day. I would like to fill it in properly, stucco over top of it, and paint it that so it looks better. I was thinking I would buy some concrete blocks (2x8x12), and mortar them in place. Would mortar adhere to the stucco that is covering this window frame? Any and all advice on how to do this is appreciated. Thanks! I've attached some pictures of what I'm dealing with.

Don't know but I would knock it off as best I could and then make sure you water proof what will be below ground level.
