Not exactly - this isn't Auldrant, after all. But it's not impossible to adapt what technology is sold in shops and make it work.

Most of the raw supplies I've found are over in the Nostalgia Nook, down in the lower half of the city. If you're looking for extra space, that's probably where you'll want to head, anyways. Most of the larger buildings that aren't already occupied will be down there. You shouldn't have a problem finding adequate lab room. I think there might be an abandoned lab down there, too...
