Embassy and front water garden

The Federation Embassy Complex on Duronis II has been rebuilt twice. The previous complex was built following the terrorist attack of 2381, and in 2388, it was rebuilt after vandels ransacked and destroy the buildings after the Federation Staff was ousted in 2386. Although the old architecture was preferred, unfortunately the design plans had also been destroyed. The new design is a close facsmile, with exception of the grounds.

Incorporating heightened security technologies and following Starfleet design parameters, the various departments of the Embassy are linked through atriums, corridors and extended stairwells. Both visitors and staff can gather in the large open atriums in addition to the building's many conference rooms and offices.

The Federation Embassy is located in Lokesh City, the capital of Duronis II, as are the Romulan Embassy and the Zalkonian Embassy though there is quite a bit of distance between the three. The Federation Embassy is situated on the coast, with its front facing the busy city, and the rear open to the ocean (though under constant security surveillance).

One of the changes to the Embassy grounds, was the addition of a swimming pool for visiting dignitaries. It was felt that swimming in the sea presented too many security issues. The rather large grounds could accomodate they main building and associated fore grounds, what has affectionately been termed the "backyard" (incorporating many gardens and a small shuttlepad), and the docks and Cultural Annex along its share of the coastline.

Here is a breakdown of the main building and associated areas:
