I presume that if you are on here then you know that there are no published maps of the city of Neverwinter. I currently am running a campaign set in 1360DR and the party had chosen this city as a base of operations. I have with mild success created a rough map of the city based references from my vast AD&D and 2NDED library. To the point, has anyone else attempted this feat of foolishness? Please help.

I'm pretty sure there's a full-color, multi-page, map of the rebuilt (c. 1479 DR) city of Neverwinter in the Neverwinter Campaign Setting. You can see <thumbnails> here (scroll to pages 2 & 3).
And there's a very simplified map viewable online <here> in The Road to RAS's Neverwinter Saga (p. 24).
I don't know if those would be of any use to you, because I don't know if the city looked anything like that a century earlier. |

the closest thing that you could use is the description of the city from the various lore sections.
The only other map you could use would be to take what you can from Obsidian's NWN2. |
why is being a wizard like being a drow? both are likely to find a dagger in the back from a rival or one looking to further his own goals, fame and power

If you wanted something generic you could make your own, and also a bit more manageable then the canon one in the 4e Neverwinter source, try THIS.
EDIT: it aso only took me about 5 seconds to Google THIS.
Personally, I used the first one. Why do all the 4e maps have to have an 'ass crack'?  |

Where else are all these drow gonna come up from, in this little "Rise of the Underdark" meta-campaign thingy they've been talking about this summer?  |

So if those are ass-cracks, and Drow are squeezing out of them...
No wonder they went back to being brown.
