You can place things on it that should not get wet should the basement have some flooding. As long as the flooding isn't severe and the floor drain is working properly.

Ok, I guess I can see that; shelves, washer & dryer with front legs on a platform. Just never seen it before. Thanks.

It's for sure not something that's very common. I've seen it in older homes in Wisconsin...but it's still kind of a rarity. If a basement toilet were to back up and overflow you wouldn't have to worry about any of that getting on stuff that's sitting on that ledge.
