Table with residents[edit]

This page needs a table of all the residents on the waterfront. I don't know how to format them, but all the information is listed in the big table on the Imperial City page (under the waterfront district part) It would be nice if someone with wiki-skills could do that :)--Blue deep 15:12, 30 January 2009 (EST)

Done. Just a simple cut-and-paste job, really. I've also moved the maps to the top, like the other district pages. --Gaebrial 15:38, 30 January 2009 (EST)

Waterfront Lighthouse[edit]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to mention this. I think the lighthouse should have a page or some mention. Maybe someone has mentioned this already: I just went down to the bottom floor and discovered that the bed can be slept in legally. The drawers next to the bed may be safe (I haven't tested that yet) and this could be a nice "free room" to add to whatever pertaining page (if not already added.) --Aunor 21:41, April 14, 2009 (originally: 98.228.102.213)

I'd be more inclined to have an "Other Buildings" section and include it there, along with the warehouse and the abandoned shack. Individually, there's not much to say about these locations but I agree they should be mentioned somewhere. –RpehTCE 03:22, 15 April 2009 (EDT)
An "Other Buildings" section would be great. I also think the bottom floor of the lighthouse could be briefly mentioned in Oblivion:Sleeping and Eating, (like the abandoned shack is) or, if the drawers are safe, in Oblivion:Houses#Free "Houses". (Though, having only one container, I'm not sure it's worth a mention there.) --Aunor 04:39, 15 April 2009 (EDT)
The room in the Aleswell inn has only one container and is listed as a free house. If the drawers are non-respawning, this could be listed there. However, the lighthouse keeper lives in that room, so you (a) won't have privacy, (b) may wake up to find you have company in bed, (c) may find the lighthouse keeper can take things from the drawers (a la Mazoga). This last bit will have to be checked out. Plus you have to pass through a guardroom to get to there, with the accompanying warnings ("You're not allowed in here", etc.) so you have to unofficially trespass to get to the cell. IOW, despite a free bed and a possibly non-respawning container, you're technically not supposed to be there. Phelaran 13:55, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Clams.[edit]

In the water, just in front of the Marie Elena, theres clams on the seafloor that, when i opened them, contained a flawed pearl, not sure if this pearl is respawning or if there are more clams but i figured it was worth mentioning, also i searched for clams to make sur ethey didnt already have a page but if they are mentioned somewhere else on a page and i didnt notice, just delete this. — Unsigned comment by 67.167.229.227 (talk) on 19 September 2009

No sorry, there are just too many clams to make them noteworthy. The pearls they give are not of much particular value either. --Timenn-<talk> 11:19, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Why the horse?[edit]

Has anyone ever noticed the constant presence of a paint horse outside the gate here leading to the Temple District? Why is it there? Lem0nhead 17:14, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

It belongs to the Orum gang from Cheydinhal. Read through the Oghash gra-Magul page to see what it is used for. --Krusty 17:19, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Coincidental[edit]

Has anyone noticed that the Waterfront, the harbour of the Capital is in the shape of an Anchor? Coincidence? Golden Eagle

Waterfront houses[edit]

I dont know if this is the right place, but i think that the shacks on the waterfront looks like Davy Crocketts shack: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7f/Crockett_Cabin1.jpg — Unsigned comment by 80.196.16.46 (talk) at 19:15 on 5 November 2010

A bit, yeah, but they also look like a lot of other old shacks. Robin Hoodtalk 19:22, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Skyrim Reference?[edit]

In the small cemetery on the eastern side of the Waterfront District you'll find five decrepit tomb stones. Three of these bear emblems with a striking resemblance to the Skyrim motif. --Knoife 19:06, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

The Imperial dragon symbol? That's been around forever. Nothing to do with Skyrim. Legoless 19:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
Nevermind then. Sorry. --Knoife 20:10, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
