As I recall, there are no maps for Mirabar.
You could take Volo's descriptive details of the town in Volo's Guide to the North and design a rough sketch from that. I do it all the time for places in the Realms that don't have maps.

Volo add that drawing a map of Mirabar is punished by death ;) |

Yes, for security reasons I know . Making maps of Mirabar is a hanging offense, but that's in-game.
Making a map for the DM to plot adventures is perfectly acceptable . Just don't let any Mirabarrans see it .

That must be especially hard on tourists who can't find their way around. |

I think the Mirabarans are too security conscious of their secrets and trade secrets that they do not wish others to know. One obvious evidence would be in Book 1 of the Hunter Blades Trilogy

True. But I'm sure there are one or two friendly old merchants or tavern owners who are more than willing to assist a recently arrived tourist find his way about town for a few gold pieces .

As far as I know, no. |
