Riverfront

Riverfront is a shamble of packed buildings and warehouses. There is a certain odor to the place, given the fisheries on the bank of the Realstream, and most establishments burn strong scented candles to help mask it. Most of the residents of Riverfront live in high story apartments, or above their shops. Families tend to build upwards, and it is not uncommon to find as many as four stories on some buildings. The ground here is wet, precluding basements. Instead, most buildings have an attic or loft for storage. Those buildings closest to the Realstream are often elevated, as the river is subject to minor floods every six years or so.   Except in the harshest times of winter, ferries are available to carry passengers and their mounts across the Realstream year-round. Most of the larger ferries end their business at sundown, but a few continue on into the odd hours of the night. Transport costs around 5 cp per passenger (horses count as passengers) on the smaller ferries, while the larger ones, capable of transporting whole caravans, cost a bit more.
