Tie into the line side (always hot) of the first switch. Run 12-3 to the second switch and then tie the load side of the second switch to your second light. Assure you have all the proper hardware and supports. Turn off all power prior to working on it cause electricity is dangerous. If you are close to your panel its always safest to run a new circuit since you have a limit on how many things can be on one circuit based on your wire size.

Should you build a basement or a second floor?

Normally when a basement is poured, there are no provisions for putting a roof on top of it. Structurally, it isn't a problem to build a basement larger than the main floor. But if you don't build on top of it, you have a major issue to deal with. You will need to determine how you will keep ground water, critters, dirt, etc from entering the basement from the uncovered side and coming into your home. If you properly seal the top of the uncovered side of the basement, I don't think you will have any problems.
