Mar 11 at 5:14 comment added Onur Oktay Professor @M.González , I hope the answer below serves the purpose & is somewhat beneficial.

Mar 10 at 17:03 comment added M.González It would be nice if you write an answer indicating how Szarek's results answer both questions.
Mar 10 at 17:02 comment added M.González @Onur Oktay: I missunderstood your first comment. I thought that only the first question was answered in Szarek's paper.
Mar 9 at 16:31 comment added Bill Johnson Szarek's negative answer to question 2 is a hard result, but it is not so difficult to give a negative answer to question 1 once you know that there is a subspace of $c_0$ that fails the approximation property: If $c_0$ is finitely representable in $X$, then $X$ has local basis structure. This is a consequence of the fact that every finite dimensional space is $2$-complemented in a finite dimensional space that has a basis with basis constant at most $2$.
Mar 9 at 10:18 comment added M.González The key is the last phrase of the review.
Mar 9 at 10:17 comment added M.González Some elementary properties of these concepts are established, and the behaviour of B_λ-condition under duality is studied. It does not seem to be known whether every Banach space has the λ-f.d.s.b. for some λ≥1. Reviewed by N. J. Kalton
Mar 9 at 10:17 comment added M.González The author defines a notion of local basic structure for a Banach space, by analogy with the concept of local unconditional structure. A Banach space X has the "λ-finite dimensional subspaces basis property'' (λ-f.d.s.b.) if every finite-dimensional subspace can be embedded in a finite-dimensional subspace with a basis of basis constant at most λ; X is a B_λ-space if, in addition, this subspace can be chosen to be complemented with projection constant at most λ.

Mar 9 at 1:28 comment added Onur Oktay Szarek's result aside, perhaps Enflo's space is another example of a separable space with local basis structure (by Proposition 1.3 in doi.org/10.1007/BF02392555) & without basis?
Mar 9 at 1:20 comment added Onur Oktay I'm afraid I don't have an access to MathSciNet, and I don't have a copy of Kalton's review in another form. Presently I can record here the exact reference to Szarek's article doi.org/10.1007/BF02392555 Corollary 1.6 within nicely sums up the answers to both questions -- for future visitors to this MO post.
Mar 7 at 9:13 comment added M.González I have looked at Szarek's paper. I think you should write an answer, trying to say something about the second question using Kalton's review in MathScinet to one of Pujara's papers.
Mar 7 at 9:12 comment added M.González Thank you for your comment.
Mar 6 at 23:50 comment added Onur Oktay Professor Gonzalez, as far as I can remember, both questions have a negative answer in Szarek's paper where he provided a space with BAP & without a basis.
