Dead Eels, for me at least, is one of the best maps.

There's three diverse sets of enemies: Dead Eels (the only map they're antagonists on), the Hatters, and the first encounter with the Brigmore Witches. There's technically four sets of enemies if you include the Weepers as well.

There are a huge amount of areas to explore: shopping area, residential area, a canal, a dock area, sewer system, the mill. Besides that, there are numerous places to explore and enter. One of the best maps personally.

There's also, I think, the most amount of unique characters. From Maria hidden at the dock area, to Trimble, Edgar Wakefield, the witch acting to be lost in the sewers, Mr. Hat, the white rat going about its path... etc.

Plus no one is guaranteed to live, not even Stride. This blog here shows just how many different things are possible: http://dishonored.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:MDGeistMD02/Which_Witch_is_Which%3F

While indeed the plot is straight forward, I think the map offers some of the best and most diverse elements of the city in one location.
