Deep Space 224 (DS224) is a large station in The Borderlands. As the focal point of the Federation's and Starfleet's presence in the region, it has many facilities to support a range of diplomatic, scientific, cultural, educational, and economic activities. With 397 decks, DS224 maintains an average population of approximately 9,000 (5,000 crew and 4,000 residents), although it can accommodate a maximum of 11,700 (5,700 crew and 6,000 residents).

Decks 1–230 are the commercial, habitat, and operations decks. Decks 231–397 are cargo bays, docking bays, engineering, power, weapons, shuttle bays and ship repair facilities.

Decks 1–5: Communications and deep space sensors

Besides the controls and access to the electronics that control all the communications and deep space sensors this area also houses an emergency back up power system. This system is strong enough to operate the top 15 decks of the station. Their is also an emergency back up life support system that can do the same.

Decks 6–15: Operations

Day to day operations of the station are overseen by the highest ranking officer on the station, although these duties are to be turned over to the senior staff of the USS Gemini while the ship is docked for repairs.

Operations Center (Ops)

The Operations Center, also called Main Ops or simply Ops, is DS224's command and control facility. It contains, among other things, the station commander's office, a turbolift, a transporter room, and a viewscreen.

Observation Room

There is at least one observation room on Deck 9.

Security Office

The office of the Chief of Security is located on Deck 7.

Sickbay

The station Sickbay is located on Deck 12.

Decks 16–221: Habitats

DS224 can accommodate a maximum of 5,700 crew and 6,000 civilian residents, although it usually maintains an average crew of approximately 5,000 and a civilian population of approximately 4,000.

Decks 16–40: Officers Quarters

Due to the type of duty on a space station all officers have their own quarters with enough space for family members in case they have families.

Decks 16 to 30 are for senior officers with quarters for 20 officers per deck
Decks 31 to 40 are for junior officers with quarters for 40 officers per deck.
There is a gymnasium on deck 35.

Decks 41–42: Diplomatic Quarters

These two decks only have 10 quarters per deck. However these quarters have multiple rooms. This would allow a diplomat to have some of his staff close to him if he wanted.

Decks 43–119: Crew Quarters

Due to the type of duty on a space station all crew have their own quarters. Crewmen with families can have them live in their quarters as well.

Decks 43 to 67 are for senior crewmen with quarters for 40 crewmen per deck.
Decks 68 to 119 are for junior crewmen with quarters for 80 crewmen per deck.

Decks 120–121: Conference Rooms

Deck 120 has 5 conference rooms and deck 121 has 10 conference rooms.

Decks 122–221: Civilian Quarters

The larger civilian quarters are on decks 122 to 172 and each deck holds 40 living spaces.
The smaller civilian quarters are on decks 173 to 221 and each deck holds 80 living spaces.

Decks 222–230: Commercial Sector

While most decks on the station are a single level, all 3 of the promenade levels are in actuality double levels. This means that some stores may have 2 levels once you enter or that some shops may be on top of other shops.

There is a middle deck, that in places, allows people to walk around the second level of each promenade but it does not block in most cases one's ability to enjoy the wide open space that has been created by having the ceiling 20 plus feet above as you walk around.

This also allows the holodecks to be full size.

Deck 222–223: Holodecks

There are at least three Holodecks and a number of Holosuites in the vicinity of the Promenades. All three of the holodecks are the standard size found on most stations, with an interior of 20' high, 60' wide and 60' long.

Most of the holosuites are the standard size of 10' tall, 20' wide and 20' long. A few of them are of the deluxe size being 10' tall, 30' wide by 40' long.

Deck 224: The Junction

A quiet canteen for those who prefer their meals undisturbed

Decks 225–226: Upper Promenade

The Upper Promenade is full of shops, entertainment and food, making the station one of the best attractions in its area.
