Middlesbrough

Star of the North
Stretching along both banks of the Ever Reaching River, the metropolis of Middlesbrough is the largest harbor in the region, and consequently a major trading center.

The Temple District
Standing on a large island in the middle of the river is the Temple district, home to the Cathedral of Three, home to the priests of Bahamut, Pelor, and Torm. Many other smaller sanctuaries and temples can be found for many other gods in this district, including Corelon and Tymora. A wide bridge lined with shops and houses connects the temple district to each side of the river. A smaller bridge also connects the temple district to a smaller island in the river upon which Avolire Hold stands.

Market District
Home to the Comfortable Glass, run by a gnome, which offers a spectacular view of the Temple district from every room.

Colleges
A bridge connects the Northern shore of the city to a barrier island in the bay. The island is split into two parts, with the northern section serving as the grounds for the Bardic College of Middlesbrough while the southern section is the grounds for the Phandelver Academy of the Arcane. The bard college is headed by a half-elf named Vilron Fendi. Archmage Aein, a highelf, heads the school of magic.

Slums
For all the wealth that Middlesbrough brings in, many in the city barely scrape by. A multitude of wreckage has accumulated along the southern bank where the river flows into the sea, and the poor have taken over, constructing crude shelters on the floating wreckage. The slums of the city have grown over the years, now encompassing much of the southern part of the city west of the High Road.
