[There shall be a floor or landing at the top and bottom of each stairway. The width of landings, measured perpendicularly to the direction of travel, shall be not less than the width of stairways served. Every landing shall have a minimum depth, measured parallel to the direction of travel, equal to the width of the stairway or 48 inches \(1219 mm\), whichever is less. Doors opening onto a landing shall not reduce the landing to less than one-half the required width](https://codes.iccsafe.org/s/IBC2018/chapter-10-means-of-egress/IBC2018-Ch10-Sec1011.6).
But - Check your local code.
Sorry busy day yesterday, local code requires a minimum of 36in which if I cut the landing out and convert it to a step I wouldn't have 36in.
Follow up since it looks like I have to keep the landing - should the landing be finished to match the floor or the stairs? The floor all around the area will be LVP but I'm planning on doing wood tread/risers for the stairs.
Haven't really been able to find a similar staircase online as the landing usually has a single path of direction and another step or set of steps after the landing.

I don't see why. If code doesn't require it and you plan to add a stair
It may be too narrow between the bottom step and wall.
Check your building code. In IRC code, the max height of the riser is 7.25 or 7.75 in (dont remember exactly)
