Well, one difference is that I think there are even less city folk than John's numbers suggest. Maybe 1000 to 1200. Whitewall should be less of a city than Clearwine.

I aslo think the DP picture is a bit... uum...fanciful.

Thus becoming "boat-shaped"? I couldn't figure this out from the picture.

Seen the picture of Whitewall in LoT? Lots of small buildings!

NIce! Adds some history to the place, just like that.

Yes! Every epic should have one :)

The picture, and the descripion so far, reminds me of Boldhome. Is this intentional? Whitewall is far older, of course, but Tarkalor's Bridge is a post-Boldhome addition.
