For the hard-working personnel who don't have time to tour the multi-cultural promenades, various lounges on almost every deck are available for use. Decks 20 to 38 of the main hull offer quarters for the VIP and Starfleet Flag Officers, wardrooms (commissioned-officers-only lounges) and a dedicated lounge for Starfleet's senior enlisted: the Chief Petty Officers. | For the hard-working personnel who don't have time to tour the multi-cultural promenades, various lounges on almost every deck are available for use.

===Entertainment Section=== | |||
Catering for the leisure time of Starbase's population and any visitors, the Entertainment Section provides opportunities for recreation in simulated 'outdoor' environments, as well as sporting facilities and theatres. | |||
* ''Mountain Range "The Space":'' An entire verdant valley ringed by several peaks is situated right at the heart of the station, providing a 'natural' environment for anyone accustomed to time planetside. A section of deciduous forest gives way to open grass, with a small lake and a river that eventually flows beneath a bridge and into a gorge. None of it is holographic, and the space has been stocked with appropriate wildlife from several compatible worlds. Available activities include rock climbing, bungee jumping from the bridge, canoeing and swimming in the lake, bushwalking and picnicking. And because no natural area would be complete without a beach, on another side of the mountain range rests a sandy beach at the edge of the lake. It gave credence to the nomenclature for the Immense-Class designation of the starbase. The series of natural mountains that had been quarried from nearby asteroids and assembled into a realistic approximation of a small mountain range easily approaching a thousand meters or more in height. Like foothills to these mountains, a secondary park-like setting had been established leading away from the alpine meadows formed by this feature, and these multi-use parklands had been labeled the "Verdant Galaxy Gardens" | |||
* ''Verdant Galaxy Gardens:'' Similar to the arboretum aboard the Constitution but proportionally bigger in size, the Verdant Galaxy Gardens were manicured and maintained with public use spaces for a variety of activities. Foliage representing many of the Federation's member worlds could be found in neat gardens and small copses, and lawns and water features seamlessly bordered and blended each biosphere. Whereas The Space encouraged physical activity and adventure, the Verdant Galaxy Gardens encouraged relaxation and meditation. | |||
* ''Snow Play Area:'' A U-shaped 'glacial' valley has been carved into the mountains of The Space, and through some wizardry with the environmental systems it is snow-covered and below freezing, whilst the valley and gardens below remain warm. To add to the atmosphere, visitors access the valley via a cable-car. A modest ski area has been set up, with equipment hire and lifts, and additional activities include tobogganing, sledding and a designated area for snowmen and snowball fights. A cosy chalet offers hearty meals and warming 'apres-ski' drinks. | |||
===Promenade-07=== | ===Promenade-07=== | ||
Promenade-07 is an Earth-like imitation. Skylight screens show blue skies during daytime and starry skies during nighttimes (Station board time). Buildings spring up in the habitat area, creating the sense of a small city, lighting up the bustling promenade. Huge swaths of well-tended green gardens completed the terrestrial look.

* ''The Cafe Grand Paris'' - run by a human and is tucked away in the French part of the Promenade which is modelled from Historical Paris. ([https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/sb118-constitution/dPGpnDl5sgk/HirOw6LYAwAJ Source]) | |||
* ''Fruits Bowls Cafe'' - Decorated in bright if somewhat tacky tropical colours, the cafe does fresh, healthy meals and grows some of it's own supplies, right in the cafe area. It has an airy mezzanine for those who just want to eat, overlooking the bowling lanes, which also include tables and seating. Caters for most dietary requirements.

* ''The Matron'' - Betazoid fine dining ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/sb118-constitution/Tahla%7Csort:date/sb118-constitution/MQMQgCiajaM/DnUI8enGBgAJ Source]), a selection of different size tables with fancy white table cloths, candles, all set up with fine cutlery and wine glasses. The walls were filled with art work, some of natural sights and others more abstract and there were fine sculptures placed around the room.

* ''T'Keck's'' - Vulcan cuisine. Austere and minimalist. Nutritionally complete, flavour optional. Vegan. ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/sb118-constitution/T$27Keck$27s%7Csort:date/sb118-constitution/UwcR47bLE8Q/mcbb20rWAgAJ Source]) | |||
* ''Rockers'' - Diner-style cafe, the walls filled with pictures of old and modern rock bands and data sticks with band names written on them. Guitars and other alien rock instruments are attached to the walls, whilst neon lights and a drum kit hang from ceiling. At the end of the room was a bar with silver metal bar stools with red seats and display of many different drinks from many different worlds. Booths upholstered in red leather provide cosy places to sit and the menu features cafe and pub-meal favourites from several cultures.

* ''Rydges'' - Restaurant offering Boslic and Ktarian cuisine; rich, spicy and sumptuous. ([https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-constitution/nY9F6Li4DGM/3cYmzbloCgAJ Source]) | |||
* ''Monthly Markets'' - Once a month a market is held on Promenade 7, featuring colourful, temporary stalls full of a wide array of goods from across the Galaxy. Some stalls belong to permanent establishments, some to traders with regular routes and some might only appear once, a happy coincidence of timing. The food stalls are always popular, offering a range of street food from many cultures, but it's often the treasures and knicknacks that draw people, hoping to find a bargain. | |||
* ''Dewey's'' - Book store with lots of comfortable seating and reading nooks and a cafe in the back. Has everything from old paper and plastic sheet volumes to the latest holonovels; from philosophical texts and manuals to popular fiction.

* ''Ly'rerina'' - Karaoke Bar established by an Antosian former Singer. The main section of the establishment is a general big bar with stage and Karaoke equipment. But for privacy and smaller parties single karaoke rooms can be rented equipped with couches, tables and karaoke equipment. These rooms are 'almost' sound proof, a bit can still be heard outside. | |||
=== Hinji Bazaar=== | === Hinji Bazaar=== | ||
Promenade-07 houses the Hinji Bazaar, which is the focal point of 104’s Hinji population. The Bazaar is a large open dome structure at the centre of a plaza, ringed in by lush, forest-like gardens. Even in the early evening hours, the marketplace is bustling, vendors crying out the superiority of their wares from each little shop. Spices wave up in the steam from food stands, colourful tapestries of cloth, glittering bangles and strings of gorgeous beads hung from clothing and jewellery stands.

===The Sink=== | ===The Sink=== | ||
The Sink is, located a level beneath Promenade-07, a neon-lit bar and restaurant corridor, a little more dingy and claustrophobic than the Promenade, but cheaper and more dynamic than some of the other entertainment districts. | The Sink is, located a level beneath Promenade-07, a neon-lit bar and restaurant corridor, a little more dingy and claustrophobic than the Promenade, but cheaper and more dynamic than some of the other entertainment districts. | ||
* ''Lembatta Suns'' - A Gorn-run bar and grill. ([https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/sb118-constitution/Y8P52rYNGfU/GkjQXmZmAAAJ Source]) | |||
* ''Garkon's Meatatorium and Boot Repair'' - Side by side with a Klingon cobbler's, the Meatatorium only has one thing on their menu. It's an adventure, and you get what they got. The only guarantee: it's not replicated. Not for vegetarians.

* ''Pot O' Latinum'' - An 'Irish' themed bar run by a Ferengi dressed as a leprechaun. A scene to delight aliens and horrify anyone who's actually been to Ireland.

* ''Chezara's Tea Shop'' - Full of exotic herbal fragrances and rich fabrics, run by an elderly Orionese lady with a lot of life experience. ([https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-constitution/kzAZsIFMeWM/SkIZ93yFBgAJ Source]) | |||
* ''Amoran Dojo'' - Tucked away at one end of The Sink is an unassuming door leading to a small but well-appointed dojo. It is run by former Starfleet officer Sinda Essen and teaches a few different martial styles, including Mok'bara and judo, that focus on self defence. | |||
* ''Harley's'' - 'The Best Worst Biker Bar Bar in Space'. Outside the bar were displayed a couple of vintage human two-wheelers. The bar was curved and in the very center, dividing it, was another of those human two wheelers, arranged as if it had crashed right into the bar, with wooden splinters around it. Astride was a helmeted skeleton. Behind the bar on the left side was a human wearing an eye patch. Catering to customers on the right was a human woman with flaming red hair wearing tight leather.

*''Hess' Legitimate Imports:'' Any business that needs to add the word 'legitimate' to its name is probably not, and Hess' is certainly no exception. This Ferengi-run shop specializes in acquiring the hard-to-get items, and the morally grey ones too. Latinum is king, and nothing is too questionable for the proprietor, whose name may or may not actually be Hess. The dingy shop is filled with "valuable" junk from across the alpha and beta quadrant, and for the right price Hess will use his network of contacts to locate and procure almost anything the unscrupulous shopper may desire. | |||
