Area of cross-section (at midpoint perpendicular to longest diagonal) in the unit cube of dimension N

Take a unit cube (of side 1) in N dimensions. Construct the cross-section at the midpoint of the longest diagonal. What is the area of this N-1 dimensional region? I can compute this, but it would be nice to have a reference and a formula to cross-check.
