+: +(note that I have fixed the error in the current map, where the location
+: +of (33), the merchant's hill, is marked by a second (3))
+: 
+: Oh drat.  Here I was lobbying for Merchant's Hill to be north of the
+: river, hilltop at *, with a nice natural barrier to the scum of Low City
+: and a lot more room for the Shunned Center, etc.  - would be more like
+: the actual construction of medieval and feudal cities with the different
+: social classes being kept in different parts of town.
+
+I have no problems with that.  But Mr. Rigler, he came up with the place, and
+he said to me, let's put it by the docks.  And the docks are south of Dragon's
+Lane.  Not to mention that when Thk wandered into the Hanging Gardens of
+Thrimm, he was by the dockside, and went from there into Low City.  So blame
+it on Michael.  I just do what people tell me, and try to clear up any really
+blatant confusion...

Oy.  But aren't there supposed to be docks all along the river?

Maybe there's a bridge just above (21) that leads across?

Maybe I should just give up and rephrase my mental image of the place...
