Abstract: We provide a geometrical construction of the slim dense near hexagon with parameters $(s,t,t_2)=(2,5,1,2)$. Using this construction, we construct the rank 3 symplectic dual polar space $DSp(6,2)$ which is the slim dense near hexagon with parameters $(s,t,t_2)=(2,6,2)$. Both the near hexagons are constructed from two copies of a generalized quadrangle with parameters (2,2).
