    \$\begingroup\$ It makes sense to specify a time period. Neverwinter has a long history, it also wasn't the biggest one in its latest years. \$\endgroup\$

About 3k feet by 4k feet

The 5e map of Neverwinter can be found on page 52 of Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. It unfortunately does not include a scale.

However, the 4e book Neverwinter Campaign Setting includes a map of the city by Mike Schley, which is also available on his website. Visually overlaying the two maps, they correlate well in terms of steets and buildings, so we can use the old version.

The scale on the 4e map gives Neverwinter to be about 3k feet north to south and 4k from Moonstone mark in the west to the river gate in the east.

    \$\begingroup\$ To save someone else the math, this is about 0.43 square miles or 1.11 square kilometers. \$\endgroup\$
