The Galvani Residence.
The Offices of Dr. Galvani is both the home and the workplace of Doctor Galvani. The mansion is located along John Clavering Boulevard in the Distillery District.
Inside, Galvani maintains a laboratory on the third floor, where he studies the plague and the rats that spread it. There are workstations for different purposes throughout the area, and Galvani's desk is also on this floor. The doctor also has a secret room behind a bookshelf in his lab, where he must keep his plague rat research due to the ban on vivisection.
Dr. Galvani keeps his specimens in the pantry on the first floor. Also on the first floor are the servants' quarters, the kitchen (which is divided into two sections – one for food preparation and the other for cooking), and the foyer, containing glass cases with various objects on display.
On the second floor is Galvani's apartment, consisting of a bedroom, a living and dining room, and a few smaller rooms off to the side. In the dining room, there is also a small safe in the corner.
The building is featured in two side objectives, both concerning Slackjaw and his Bottle Street Gang. Corvo Attano has the chance to visit the building during the missions High Overseer Campbell and House of Pleasure.
