Gotham Square
The Epicenter of Gotham, with a statue of the anonymous policeman standing proudly in the center. As citizens look down the street of Gotham Square to the Harbour, they can see the armed statue of Lady Gotham, her sword pointing to the heart of the city.

Grissom Tower
The late mob boss Carl Grissom's former million dollar headquarters. From here, he ran all of his criminal enterprises, the GCPD unable to so much as lay a hand on him. Despite the DA's gathering of evidence against Grissom, he would never be brought into a court room due to his violent murder at the hands of the Joker.

Gotham Plaza
Serves as a memorial to The Ice Princess and her untimely death at the hands of Penguin a few years ago. A statue now stands in her memory. From the top of the Gotham Ritz to the ground floor of the Gotham Mall, not one part of this area of town is without charm or elegance. For the masses, yearning to forget the perils of an aging Metropolis, the Plaza invites the casual consumer to feast upon its numerous shops and venues.

Wayne Tower
Main headquarters of Wayne Enterprises . There are branch offices and headquarters all over the world, with the second largest office tower in New York City. Currently, Wayne Technologies, Wayne Aerospace, Wayne Chemicals (and its lesser-known subsidiary of Wayne Pharmaceuticals) stand tall at the forefront of research and development in their fields. They have many joint ventures with Drake Medical, S.T.A.R. Labs, Oscorp, Stark Industries, etc.

Stark Industries
Although partnering with Wayne Enterprises in its base city is a good business gesture, Tony Stark has built up a company headquarters in Gotham as an answer to the sudden spike in crime rates and talk of a criminal catastrophe. With the economy plummeting and the possibility of a city wide depression on the horizon, setting up a corporation not only sends a message to other businesses to keep Gotham on its feet, but also puts Iron Man close to a bad situation. Perhaps, Mr. Stark could help matters in a town on the brink.

Oscorp
Gotham Branch: Partners with Wayne Enterprises in Gotham and a place of much unrest. The company built and funded by Norman Osborn, and later used as an armoury for his villainous crime waves as the meniacal Green Goblin. After his passing, the company he'd spent a lifetime building up would fall into the hands of his enbittered son, Harry. Desperate to make his late father proud, the young Osborn would put Ocorps reputation to the test on many ocasions with dangerious experiements and careless bussiness tactics.

Shreck's
Located a few blocks from Gotham Square, the department store, worth millions, was the pride and joy of the late business Mongol, Max Shreck. After his disappearance and assume death, his son, Chip, took over the company. Like his father, Chip Shreck's callous tactics and ruthless demeanor are enough to make many cringe, if not for the inherited trait he carries, which enables him to hide behind a mask of good will.

Amusement Mile
An amusement park in Gotham, lined with ferriswheels, rollercoasters, and other attractions typical of a theme park. Errected in 1978, as an attempt to boost tourism and bussiness attention. Serves as Gothams feeble answer to Coney Island.

Gotham Globe
Gotham Cities local newspaper. Not exactly world famous compared to The Daily Planet of Metropolis or New York's Daily Bugle. However, it has seen it share of fame from photographer, Vicki Vale and controversial writer, Alexander Knox in his "giant bat" story.

Gotham City Court House
Justice is blind. Well, it would be if the political and public servants of Gotham were as true in heart as they lead their citizens to believe. Crooked is the word and its whispered in hushed tones. Never under estimate the depths in which corruption can travel here. You can win your freedom in these courts of law if you have the money and a few judges in your pocket. Even the most gruesome of crimes can be cleaned up with a little green.

GCPD Headquarters
If you thought criminals were bad, brace yourself. The main building for the police force in Gotham City. Operated by some of the most corrupt and vile people ever to call themselves police officers. Thank God it's run by Commisioner Jim Gordon. Without his noble leadership, the city would no doubt, fall into the worse reign of evil America has ever seen. Not even the Batman could hold back the floodgates.

Park Row
In this decaying and horrible part of an ancient and glorious city, the dangers are numerous. Noted for being the most violent sector of Gotham City, "Crime Alley," as its nicknamed, is the stage for at least a half a dozen murders on any given day. Even the police are fearful of treading to this part of town. If you are to venture here, be always on your guard, or death will claim you in an instant.

The Monarch Theatre
Once part of the Golden Age of Films, this movie palace fell into the void of Gotham's wreckage. It sits near Park Row, closed down and forgotten, old movie posters still lining the exterior walls. Before its untimely shutting down, its setting was paramount in one of the worst murders in the history of the city. On the streets, not far from the theatre, Thomas and Martha Wayne were shot to death in front of their young son, shortly after seeing a movie. The case remains open to this day. However, Bruce Wayne, son of the murdered couple has since discovered the identity of the killer as being Jack Naiper. This is not of record with the GCPD police.

Gotham Cathedrial
Its almost as old as the city itself and is in as bad of shape. Like many old establishments, this Cathedral has been forgotten by Gotham Citizens and has fallen into serious disrepair. On its exterior it is a marvelous spectacle, the majestic architecture jutting into the skyline. The sight hides the interior's wreckage and dilapidating. It figures large in the early history of Batman's activities in the city. It was here, rumors claim, that the Dark Knight fought perilously with one Gotham's worst criminals.

Gotham Harbor
A popular spot for unlawful business transactions between the more upscale, white collar criminals of Gotham, who use the harbor to transport large quantities of paraphernalia or conduct meetings away from prying and watchful eyes. It isn't a safe spot for those not under the cloud of organized crime.

Gotham Zoo
Closed down more than thirty years ago, the ancient statues of sea crabs and other animals stand as a grim reminder of the Zoo's once vital activity in a much more peaceful Gotham. The Cobblepot infant was dumped here, left to rot inorder to spare his parents the burden of raising him. He would grow into the vengful murderer, The Penguin and terrorize the city.

Axis Chemicals
Former property of Mobster, Carl Grissom, he used the place to set up his employee, Jack Naiper. Batman showed up at the facility, and when Napier tried to shoot him, Batman deflected his shots into his face, wounding Napier and causing him to fall into a massive pool of toxic chemicals. Napier survived, but was deformed and burned by the chemicals. After the newly name Joker shot Grissom, he took over Axis Chemicals, using it to poison beauty products in Gotham City.

The Elizabeth Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane
Arkham Asylum does not have a good record, at least with regard to the high profile cases; escapes are frequent (on at least one occasion, an obsessive-compulsive multiple murderer was signed out of Arkham into the care of an incontinent, alcoholic vagrant, on the grounds that he "looked like a responsible citizen"), And those who are 'cured' and released tend to re-offend. Furthermore, several staff members, including at least one director, have ended up as residents, notably Dr. Harleen Quinzel, Lyle Bolton and, Drs. Jonathan Crane and Hugo Strange. In addition, prisoners with unusual medical conditions that prevent them from staying in a regular prison are housed there. For example, Mr. Freeze is not technically insane, he requires a strongly refrigerated environment to stay alive, which only Arkham can provide.

Blackgate Maximum Security Penitentiary
The city's prison. The worst of the so called sane criminals get sent here to serve time for their horrendous crimes. Most sent here have at least one life term or have committed murder or sexual assault. The most concentrated place of evil in Gotham.

Gotham Sewers
Interconnecting tunnels that run throughout the city. Many of the more tragic criminals dwell here, having been scorned from a world that wishes nothing to do with him. Death's are frequent here, the smell of blood pungent in the nostrils of visitors, whom are few.

Wayne Manor
Located a few miles north of Gotham City, Bruce Wayne's mansion home stands as a monument to his late parents. While he enjoys its comforts, he does admit, "Some of it is very much me. Some of it isn't." The home represents people much happier than he and is the only reminder of a Bruce Wayne untainted by the thoughtless and cruel acts of Gotham's plight.

She was last seen by witnesses at the annual Max-eraide ball, on Christmas Eve, a few years ago. But, who knows how much longer this home will remain unoccupied.

Rika Nakao's Apartment
Rika lives in a fairly fancy and large apartment on the top floor of an apartment building. The front door is made of a thick steel with a wood covering to disguise it. There are several bolts on the other side to lock it up tight. The windows are all made of bullet resistant glass and are tinted so no one can see into the apartment, but you can see out clearly. Inside the walls are painted black with crimson red carpet. through some of the rooms, such as the kitchen, have hard wood flooring. The living room is quite larger, bigger then a normal apartment living room, and the kitchen is also way larger. There's a master bedroom and one guest room. So basically, its a very large and homy apartment. There's also a few security systems.
