Floor Plan
The Planet Express Building has an ever-changing floor plan. Rooms such as the Angry Dome can appear only in one episode and never be seen again. A cross section was made availiable in one of the comics and the building could be explored in the game, but both of these layouts omitted features.
The building is known to have at least five floors, including two basement levels. The location of the Professor and Cubert's bedrooms within the building are unknown.
Places inside the building include the Professor's Lab, Hermes Conrad's office, Dr. Zoidberg's office, the main hanger, an observatory, a lounge, the basement, a dining room and a kitchen.
