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 available 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 hangar, an observatory, a lounge, the basement, a dining room and a kitchen. There is also a room called "The Accusing Parlour." It is first used in the Anthology of Interest I when Zoidberg is trying to solve a murder. Although the two Anthology of Interests are not considered canon, the room is used a second time when the Professor accuses Fry of breaking his model ship in The 30% Iron Chef, confirming its existence.
