Rather than have several unused sub-boards, here is a list of places you can visit/mention in your post. Feel free to make up something of your own! It may end up featured here. If I notice someplace becoming particularly popular, I will recreate its sub-board.
Borgin and Burkes
A ways down the alley lies Knockturn Alley's most notorious shop, Borgin & Burkes. It specializes in "objects with unusual and powerful properties," particularly items that are both "unusual and ancient." It is large, dusty, and dimly lit with a large stone fireplace.
The Daily Prophet
This well-known wizarding paper relocated to the outer ends of Knockturn Alley near the ruins of the old Diagon Alley. The atmosphere is one main open space office where reporters can yell to be heard or easily get information and answer owls, but along the length of the building is a large office with a glass wall for the press secretary to work in while still being able to observe the staff in the open space office as well as a couple closed in offices for meetings.
The Duck and Dagger
No one quite knows why it was named what it was other than to suit their strange mascot of a snarling one-eyed yellow duck with bulging arm muscles sporting a ferocious looking knife and a cup of tea. However, it's a fairly nice cafe serving various beverages and snacks.
The Gallows
The Gallows offers a wide variety of dismembered limbs and other sinister parts for your Dark Magic needs. Hangman’s rope, human skulls, bones, shrunken heads, rusty, spiked instruments, and a large selection of other objects to choose from.
Lisovyk Mariska's
Purveyor of fine wands, Mariska's is run by Sezja Solokov, the respected wandmaker from Russia. The building is located in the overflow of Knockturn alley into the ruins of Diagon Alley, and is only renovated on the outside. Beyond what the customers see, boards and loose nails yet mark a work in progress. A parade of shelves containing wand boxes crowd the lower level. The upper floor is used as the owner's living quarters, and also as a temporary safe house for SAVIOR and the Order. Sports many protective spells, supplied by the Order. Discounts for supporters of the Lord and his government.
Lure
A private underground club in the Wizarding world. Lure's reputation has always been shady but since the takeover it openly caters to Trevor and his Death Eaters.
The Snake Pit
Counterpart to The Leaky Cauldron, the Snake Pit is a haven for all dark witches and wizards looking for a place to stay or a cold pint of their favorite ale. The pub is dimly lit so there are many dark corners to hide in, and it is often frequented by Vampires looking for a quick meal…
Toil and Trouble
Need something for that deadly potion but can't find it anywhere else? Toil and Trouble is your one stop shop for all rare and hard to find potion ingredients with a deadly twist.
