• Square A is the northwestern most square in Mars Base Zero.
• Bounded on the north by the north wall.
• Bounded on the west by the west wall.
• Bounded on the south by square B, and separated from square B with a loose concrete block wall 3 blocks (2 feet) high.
• Bounded on the east by square C, and separated from square C with a loose concrete block wall 2 blocks (16 inches) high.
• There is no soil in the square; it is used for storage, composting and a (very) few potted plants.
• Size:
• 11' (3.4 m) east/west by 11' 3.5" (3.5 m) north/south
• 124 square feet (11.75 square meters)
  

• Since this square is the furthest from the entry, it tends to gather things that aren't used very often.  To facilitate this we added a table in the corner.
• During the 1999-2000 winter (October to April) this is where the chickens were kept.  Heat pipe coil was also located here over the winter.
• 2004 is the first year that it had any crops in it, and then not many: just a pumpkin in a pot.  Over the summer we also stored the scaffolding there, and during the fall '04 closure period we added in the compost pile.

Potential Future Plans:

• Addition of a fish tank.
• Chicken coup restored.
• Preplant are along N wall, complete with lights and multiple shelves
• Addition of a loft area for more storage and plants.
