Poet's Corner, as its name suggests, is in the north west corner of the new city and it is home to many of the city's students of the arts. Apart from this, the area is largely inhabited by the city's middle-classes.

There are a number of fine inns and taverns in the area, though they are all expensive. The finest is the Marquis of Fontaine, one of the best in the city, though it is also the city's most expensive.

The centrepoint of the district is the Rellyn Athara, the Bardic Academy.
