I think I know where you are. In the room you described just above (with the
closed wind tunnel, pond and closed downward opening) is a switch - I don't
see how you can miss it. It's near the closed wind tunnel, very big with
that stylised letter Q on it. Hit it (just walk  into it, it's not a
shootable switch) and the bars which seal the opening that you jump down
will open up. Jump down there and you're on your way.

If that's too hard to understand. I recoarded a NOTARGET demo of the entire
level. You can find it at http://homepages.ihug.com.au/~alomac/ (it's the
file called w2.dem) Download the file, put it in your \quake\id1\ folder
then, run Quake and from the console type PLAYDEMO W2

Cheers,
Adam.
