That's Maelvan's Gate, it's not an auction house at all, nor was it ever one, but actually the ACN's Guild (it was meant to be this even in 1.0 - it had the ACN class symbol on the map). Lore-wise the ACNs are employed as Limsa Lominsa's customs agents (hence why in ARR lines of people are shown at the counters waiting to be cleared across the border, and one quest in Limsa involves a goblin having to submit tax report forms to the Guild). There was never any actual auction house in FFXIV as SE didn't want the economy to be ruined via RMT like FFXI's was. But you're right about there being lots of odd little details and interesting things to find scattered around the world - you just have to be prepared to explore.I started 1.0 in Limsa so I've always been interested in the closed buildings/services. As well as the MSK guild, there was also an auction house (not the old market wards, this was something different) beside the ferry terminal in Lower Limsan Docks.
I know people call the market an auction house but I was always hoping they'd turn that docks auction house into a real auction house, like from FF9, where you could bid on rare items NPC's put up for sale or even bid on items being sold by other players. Unfortunately, Bahamut blew that place to Kingdom come a while ago so those hopes were dashed
There are a lot of interesting looking places around if ya just take the time to look around and smell the flowers. So many think that all that exists in this game is dungeons, FATE's and gil. Lots of interesting things outside of those rote repetitions.![]()

not really a hint since Musketeer been confirmed since 1.0.
They just never got past the who image stage of that class due to 1.0 sudden change into 2.0.
Still waiting for some kind of info about Musketeer class.
I believe mbncd is refering to the building nearby Maelvan's gate. It was actually across the way behind a locked gate with a gavel on a placard over the door.
Also, to touch on the shepard talk, not only did it have the unused guildhall in owl's nest, but the npc in Hawker's alley who sold the weathered DOL equipment made mention to selling gear for shepards. (tho he didnt actually sell said gear)
Right, what I was referring to was a building on the south side of the ferry docks, near where the aethernet node is now but further south. Unfortunately, it no longer exists since Bahamut's attack.
Edit: I'm looking for online pics now. Here's a map showing the missing land mass. Can't find a pic of the place itself.
Edit 2: Here's a map of what Limsa is like now, for comparison. Still no sign of the auction house amongst these zillions of screen shots. Very hard to find due to the phrase commonly being used for non auction house related things. I really wish people would use FFXIV terminology for FFXIV things, it would make it so much easier to find stuff like this... Enough whinging from me though, back to the hunt.

I seem to remember a quest in 1.0 that specifically stated (or an npc )that that locked door was Limsa's auction house.I believe mbncd is refering to the building nearby Maelvan's gate. It was actually across the way behind a locked gate with a gavel on a placard over the door.

If you looked around there were at least 4 tacitly promised classes on the very first day, not only was there musketeers Arcanist ( which had a very different weapon and looked to be a straight caster support) and the off hand mentions of shepards. Mihkito's ampatheater also had a guild sign above it similar to all the other guilds that depicted a lute and there were several mentions of bards long before jobs were added.
Merlwyb digs bullets.
If I remember properly there was also a Shepherd's guild in Coerthas in 1.0. I'm not sure if it was confirmed as a DoL or DoW potential class and as it's no longer there I'm guessing it was axed?
