Grand Corridor

The Grand Corridor was a section of the Imperial Palace on Coruscant. One of the few sections of the Palace open to the public, the corridor was also one of the largest (reputed to be able to accomadate a Victory Star Destroyer), and was personally designed by Emperor Palpatine. The corridor was held a number of cafes and beverage stands, and was lined with Ch'hala trees. The trees were amongst Palpatine's favorite planets--and also one of his most potent weapons. The trees were used to spy on conversations, even when the people thought they were alone. This spy technique, called Delta Source, was used by the Emperor to gain access secrets which he would use against Senators, politicians, and his own subordinates.
