| Description | Alexander's is a small bolt-hole used almost exclusively by Starfleet and Federation personnel who are looking for a quieter, more sedate experience than that offered by the facilities on the main promenade. Decorated with an updated 'nautical' theme, the bar was designed by its original owner, Alexander Gunning, to invoke a sense of pride and tradition among the personnel of the starbase. It is currently operated by Ferengi brothers Karx & Venin. History Located in the lower habitation section of 332, Alexander's was originally included in the station's blueprint as a small lounge for junior officers who didn't wish to travel up to the Promenade or upper decks in order to enjoy the company of their fellows. In the early years of the station's operation, the lower habitation areas were rarely - if ever - utilised by the base's skeleton crew and the lounge was given over to storage. By the time the station became fully operational, the room was all-but forgotten about and was traded into civilian ownership as part of a further barter deal with the Promenade Business Association. On a routine inspection, Captain Alexander Gunning came across the dusty, neglected room and set about trying to convert it to its original purpose, taking on the deed and refitting the room in a nautical theme. However, the base commander was caught up in the devastating Sojourner bomb blast which devastated much of the station and work on the bar ceased before it could be officially opened. When his brother Jordan came aboard the station in 2390, the bar transferred into his ownership as bequeathed by the elder Gunning's Will. He pressed a small team into completing its transformation and, in a fit of fraternal hubris, hired two Ferengi brothers to take on the day-to-day running of the bar. It was named 'Alexander's' in memory of his late sibling and former commander of the station and a small portrait of him hangs below the brass bell which chimes to signal 'last orders'. |
