Notes[]

  1. 1.0 1.1 Within the City of Splendors boxed set (1994), the book entitled "Campaign Guide" lists the Smokehouse as being two-stories tall. However, another book within that boxed set, the Adventurer's Guide to the City, instead refers to the building as being only a single story tall. The later published City of Splendors: Waterdeep (2005) defers to the former, listing the Smokehouse as having two floors.
