New Optional Quest: Find the Broadcast Control Station
The mission starts in [Dunwall Tower Waterlock], i.e. the same place that you have already had the opportunity to visit while playing the prologue part. Jump out of the boat and swim inside. You need to start climbing here. After you run out of further objects to catch on, use Blink (teleportation) to reach the opening shown in the above screenshot.
Turn your attention to the corpse on the right. It is lying behind the bars and, if you want to reach it, you need to Possess one of the rats around. On the corpse, you will find gold and a bone charm.
You can resume climbing in a number of ways. Variant one is to remain in the narrow shaft that you have just reached. On your way, there would be several moving objects that you would have to go past (the above screenshot), but you can, also here, use the power of Blink.
Variant two assumes that you use teleportation to reach higher-located catwalks, and ultimately reach the upper level patrolled by guards.
Variant three, the last one, is connected with reaching the small catwalk shown in the above screenshot. After reaching the door, you would run into an active arc pylon, and you would have to hold time to get around it. It's worth adding here that, if you want to explore the area around the pylon, you can disable it by removing the whale oil tank. Unfortunately, apart from small amounts of gold and a Piero's spiritual remedy, there is nothing interesting to be found here.
