I currently have an outlet as can be seen in the image below. What I would like to do is to add some outlets to the brick wall that you can also see in the image. I was thinking about using some metal conduit and using metal boxes to run the outlets. Where I am having trouble is figuring out the least destructive way to add the outlets. I don't have to have the existing outlet, so I could use this as some sort of a junction box. Any ideas on how to do this?

You can remove the cover plate and outlet and install a box entender similar the the one below.
Then run your conduit out of this box to the additional flush mounted boxes and outlets. If these outlets will be in a basement or garage they will need to be GFCI protected.
