Overview edit
Old Garlow's Place is a house in the Heapside district of Baldur's Gate, standing on a rocky cliff on the shore of the River Chionthar. It is a three-storied building with a large basement.
The property fell into disrepair after its previous owner 
Garlow left, and is now deemed unsafe for habitation by the city authorities. However, the city life abhors the vacuum, and the seemingly empty house turns out to be quite occupied, if the party explore it.
The particular set of the current inhabitants of the Old Garlow's depends on the decisions taken by the party in Act One during the 
Save Mayrina quest.
- If the party saved
Mayrina from the 
hag who tricked her, the building has become a base of operations for the Anti-Hag Support Group, founded and run by Mayrina. However, the group leader herself is indisposed when first approached, and the party may investigate and help Mayrina and her newfound fellows-in-misery. - If the party sided with the hag in Sunlit Wetlands, the house has become a hideout for a group of thugs calling themselves the Dead Eyes, who try to operate in the Lower City athwart the Guild. However, they do not know that the Guild is already watching them.
Inside edit
Old Garlow's Place is the new hideout of the Anti-Hag Support Group after their landlord evicted them from Barren's Coop.
The Anti-Hag Support Group can be found inside Old Garlow's Place. Upon entering the main room, the party must succeed a dialog check, otherwise the Anti-Hag Support Group will not trust them and attack. Upon convincing them they're not allied with any hag, the group will explain their leader Mayrina is upstairs.
If Mayrina is never saved in Act One, instead of the Anti-Hag Support Group a group of people called the Dead Eyes occupy Old Garlow's Place instead. They are hostile on sight.
Upstairs edit
Mayrina can be found upstairs. She has been hexed into a sheep. If 
Connor Vinderblad is resurrected in Act One, he can also be found here.
Basement edit
Next to the stairs, a hatch at X: -59 Y: -141 allows access to Old Garlow's Basement. The basement is trapped with several explosives and a single pressure plate in the far corner of the hallway. The pressure plate can be activated by adding weight to it to open a wall that leads to a hidden cave. Despite the pressure plate appearing like a trap that can be disarmed, disarming it must be avoided as that renders the cave inaccessible through the wall entrance. However, using an 
Arrow of Transposition can get the party over the wall if they disarmed the pressure plate.
