North Ward
The North Ward is one of the city wards in Waterdeep. It's famous for being the quietest ward of the city, consisting mostly of residential areas.
Demographics
The North Ward is inhabited primarily by upper-middle class Waterdhavians, successful merchants, lesser noble families of the city, and civic workers. Typical residents of the North Ward are wealthy enough to afford a few servants, who usually come to work for the day and return to their homes elsewhere in the city at night. Activity on the streets peaked soon after sunrise and at the end of the day, when day servants arrived by drays to their places of work, while residents left home to work in other wards. This period of high-intensity traffic lasted for about one hour, after which the ward fell back into quiescence.
Points of interest
The ward is famous for its numerous birds that fly in large flocks at dawn and dusk, and it's also common for North Ward buildings to have dovecotes on their roofs.
Architecture
The architectural style of the North Ward is dominated by rowhouses, which filled the gaps between the villas of lesser noble houses. The ward also sports a variety of taverns and shops.
