The 6-cube honeycomb or hexeractic honeycomb is the only regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 6-space.
It is analogous to the square tiling of the plane and to the cubic honeycomb of 3-space.
Constructions
There are many different Wythoff constructions of this honeycomb. The most symmetric form is regular, with Schläfli symbol {4,34,4}. Another form has two alternating 6-cube facets (like a checkerboard) with Schläfli symbol {4,33,31,1}. The lowest symmetry Wythoff construction has 64 types of facets around each vertex and a prismatic product Schläfli symbol {∞}6.
Related honeycombs
The [4,34,4], Template:CDD, Coxeter group generates 127 permutations of uniform tessellations, 71 with unique symmetry and 70 with unique geometry. The expanded 6-cubic honeycomb is geometrically identical to the 6-cubic honeycomb.
The 6-cubic honeycomb can be alternated into the 6-demicubic honeycomb, replacing the 6-cubes with 6-demicubes, and the alternated gaps are filled by 6-orthoplex facets.
Trirectified 6-cubic honeycomb
A trirectified 6-cubic honeycomb, Template:CDD, containins all birectified 6-orthoplex facets and is the Voronoi tessellation of the D6* lattice. Facets can be identically colored from a doubled ×2, [[4,34,4]] symmetry, alternately colored from , [4,34,4] symmetry, three colors from , [4,33,31,1] symmetry, and 4 colors from , [31,1,3,3,31,1] symmetry.

The citizens of Summerside and the surrounding area derserved this facility, for too long we had to use outdated decrepit, unsafe and embarassing facilities, I applaud ethe Mayor and the Council at the time who had the vision, and the and the community spirit to push the building of this facility thru all the politics and legal stuff to get this built. And it continues to grow, The addition of a the skateboarding facility tp CUP is proving to be a well used and appreciated park for our young citizens.
