This is dated August 1994. It's a decent early level notable for its unusually high level of detail; chairs, hot plates, a grotty-looking toilet (what is it with all the toilets in these old levels?), even some - gasp - good lighting effects. And some bad lighting effects too. The layout is cramped, with 60 mostly weak baddies that you slaughter easily, but it's not bad. The detailing is still in places decent today although the novelty has long worn off.

Other: Upon reading the Tutor text that came with DEU, I
came upon the statement that it was impossible to align the textures
above, beneath and around windows. NONSENSE! say I. It's actually
quite easy. After inserting vertices along the linedefs, but BEFORE
amassing them into a sector, align the textures (x offset) via the F8 key. 
Then go ahead and make your window. Unpeg the upper and lower textures and 
viola! A note of caution: If your room is of an odd height, make sure that 
y offset is adjusted for all of the textures in that room. (Not bad for 
a thirty-two year-old Research and Development Technician, huh? But, then
again, you probably knew all this already).
