On 239306.06 Rights to develop the area formerly known as 'The Below' were sold to Khobeerian mercantile queen Madame [[Lurtz]] for the equivalent of 30 million federation credits.  Construction started that very week, with plans to turn the Below space into a trendy upmarket living and commerce area that retains it's dark and forbidden allure yet populates the area with legitimate commerce.  As part of the rights agreement stores that are outside of Federation jurisdiction are allowed to do commerce in this sector, with the station commander's approval.
Following deliberation, the Lurtz Corporation have decided to theme the whole area after the ancient city of Venice, creating a genuine haven of culture in a familiar yet classical setting. While people will still enter from the belly of The Dungeon, they would enter from this dark area into a bright, Mediterranean retreat complete with waterways and cobblestone plaza's, lined with some of the finest clothing and food boutiques from the quadrant and beyond. With enough space for several hundred residents, The Below is to become Città di nuova eleganza (Town of New Elegance) or simply Nuova Eleganza.

Nuova Eleganza, the attractive Venezian mercantile subdistrict of StarBase 118 started it's life as a shady criminal underworld called 'The Below.'  The Below as a level existed before the Kalendra bombing in 2375; but the construction that allowed it to reach a level of infamy started directly after the bombing and subsequent partial triggering of the Starbase's self destruct system.  The secrecy involved in the level went hand in hand with the rushed turnaround to get the Starbase repairs completed while the current senior crew was dealing with a Maquis terrorist plan.

However, in April of 2393, with the rise of the conflict with the [[Jenatris Confederation]] the Orion pirate and slave trader [[Chennel]] decided to re-open the below using Pelian criminal [[Janker]] to do so.  However, with rising scrutiny on criminal activity as well as partial knowledge of the area, Janker's work in breaching the sealed level attracted Starfleet's attention.

For the first time in many years Starfleet personnel ventured into the Below, finding a rotting legacy of crime and darkness.  The automated security systems were still active and slaughtered Marine Captain [[Hughes, Raymond|Raymond Hughes]] who was one of the first to break into the level.  Eventually Starfleet officers were able to capture Janker and shut the security systems off.  Immediately following Captain [[Sal Taybrim]] sent teams of engineers down into the Below to remove the plasticized tritanium mesh that prevented sensors from piercing the level and to clear out all other equipment and evidence.  The cleared evidence was all sent directly to the Black Tower for processing.

==Historical Engineering of the Below==
The Below was crafted with a layer of plasticized tritanium mesh in the bulkheads - this was added in 2375 during the refit construction.  Plasticized tritanium mesh prevents sensors from piercing the level and poorly done station plans overlooked this area, casting it as only computer circuitry and power relays.
All mesh was removed on 239306.03 and sensors can now penetrate all areas of the station, including those of the Below.
