The Spire
Eiffel Tower-like communications array, capped with three tall thin structures. Directly underneath the array is an observation deck and a restaurant called "Lighthouse"
Lighthouse Restaurant
Very upmarket, silver service. Can be reserved for official diplomatic functions.
Grand Mezzanine
The Grand Mezzanine is a lavish section located at the topmost part of the station under The Spire. It consists of a Mezzanine level and a Ground level.
The top half of Copernicus Center runs vertically through the middle of the Grand Mezzanine.
The Spire is visible through the transparent roof of the Grand Mezzanine.
Mezzanine Level
The Mezzanine level contains establishments against the outer wall of the station. The inner part of the "ring" contains a large walkway, and a rail that allows for viewing of the ground level below.

- Brew Continuum - First location in the Delta Quadrant (possibly one of several on Amity)
- Wet Goods Tavern & Karaoke Bar
- The Glommer and Beagle Pub - Smaller than Wet goods, it has a modern decor, to the point where it was almost plain and drab - save for the massive illustration of a Glommer on one the long walls, and a Beagle (with "Porthos" handwritten in small letters underneath) on the other. The bar area is situated in the center of the pub, with tables and chairs around the outside of the area. There are many stools that are lined up around the entire long bar.

Copernicus Center
The Copernicus Center is essentially a "skyscraper" located within the outpost that has retained its original name as a tribute to the station's previous life. The structure rises from the bottom of the shuttle bay, up into the Grand Mezzanine all the way to the top of the station, where it meets with the base of the Spire. 66 metres (216 feet) height. 15 floors, Ambassador Rivi Vataix’s office is located on the 15th floor. Starfleet Ops is located on First Floor.

Supplies can be stored for ships operations, and repairs can be conducted if a ship is so badly damaged that repairs on the outside of the Outpost could be slower than made in a pressurized atmosphere.
The Shuttlebay is 575 meters (1886 ft) in diameter.
Habitat Ring
The Habitat Ring contains apartments and different named districts. Each district contains a different theme, and can contain different environmental conditions. Most districts are named after significant places in the Federation, with the exception of Paxau which is named after a region on Talax. 392 metres in diameter. 49 metres in height.
