Volo's Guide to Cormyr has some maps for cities within Cormyr. The guide can be downloaded here. |

| Volo's Guide to BG II has Athkatla..... Um Candlekeep was drawn in a old Dragon that goes with the BG games. Citadel Adbar is on the Silver Marches pull out map. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Nope it's not, since it's a Dragon article and we all know that Dragon is not official canon.  |

Ah, that explains why the Archive didn't have it. 
I so wish they could update those... I'm told that it'll never happen, but it sure would be nice if they could. |

Yeah I love my archieves as well, but also prefer to have the hard copies also, but then I have a lot of the hard copies going back to 2e. |

All of my D&D stuff, with the exception of the Dragon Magazine Archive CD-ROMs, is hard-copy.
I have every Dragon from about 148 to 322. I've got about a dozen more from before then, and the five Best of Dragon volumes.
Of course, my apartment isn't nearly big enough for all of my stuff, so all of the pre-250 Dragons (except for the Best of ones) have had to go into storage. |

You're welcome and thank you for the compliment. There is another regional tome with some Cormyr city maps. However, it's only available at RPGNow for a small price.

Campaign Cartographer might be a place to start. Additionally, scribe Yack, in his thread, mentioned that he uses Photoshop. He might be someone to consult with for additional information.

Also, there is another source for maps of the Realms. It's long out of print, now, but there is an old product called the Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas.
It's not even supported any more, but there are a gazillion maps of the Realms in that product. |
