Postulates which lead to Minkowski spacetime are amended in a subtle way, and used to construct a consistent flat spacetime geometry with intrinsic quantum character. Events in the new quantum geometry are described by labels of the form (t, x, s) where t (time) and x (spatial extent) are familiar and s is a positive integer. Structure-determining parameters for the novel spacetime are explored in some detail. Particular structure parameters can be shown to generate equations of mainstream quantum mechanics, and structure parameters can also be chosen which lead to the appearance of quantum particles as spatially extended moieties, such as strings. Further elaboration is required before the new spacetime can be used as a comprehensive basis for physical theory, however even at the unfinished level a new way of accounting for rest mass emerges, and it is predicted that future experiments will fail to find Higgs particles.
