Gotham City Limits - Key Location Studies 1/4

Crest Hill, Voronov Estate ; A manor built to Valentin Voronov's tastes, very Russian in its architecture. I was imagining something similar to the Falcone Mansion in The Penguin, but much smaller. Similarly covered by foliage and far from Mainland Gotham, Valentin preferred his privacy. Vincent spent most of his time avoiding his father and found great comfort in exploring the land their estate covered, as well as appreciating the architecture of the home itself. The stables were always his favorite, because Valentin rarely wanted to venture out to the riding field, so Vincent was free to have his own alone time. It's a very quiet place, representing the way Valentin held a silent choke hold on the city, as well as his family. His power and prestige was never bombastic or loud, but subdued. True power doesn't need to be expressed, it is just known.

Gotham Center, Wayne Industries ; My absolute favorite Wayne "Manor" is The Batman 2022 Wayne Tower, because their actual Manor became the Orphanage, they live in a beautiful stylized penthouse that resembles something much older than it actually is. Like they carved a piece of the actual Wayne Manor out and placed it on top of Wayne Tower lmao. So, in GCL, I've decided Wayne Industries/Wayne Tower has ALWAYS been the primary residence of the Waynes. Wayne Industries is responsible for the development of all of Gotham's public transit, including its old AND new subway systems, so that's where most of their money comes from. There is also an abandoned train depot in the lower levels just like in The Batman too lmao. It retains much of the same aesthetic as that Wayne Tower, though because I have it doubling as both a residence And corporate office from the get-go, I've expanded quite a bit of it to really drive him how much influence the Waynes have had on Gotham.

Bruce nearly has a heart attack over this when he notices and doesn't have to search very far because the researcher shows up at his door.

the way Brucie looks out for his employees

you KNOW Wayne Tower employee restrooms have that like

Goooooooooooooooood good toilet paper.

That fucking super soft and absorbent but strong enough not to flake or pill off in your business kinda TP

That "so good it's listed with the bennies" TP

And probably the flushable wet wipes too just. In a fuckin dispenser on every stall wall, right next to the ones for the pads and the condoms

This also makes it the most safe building in Gotham, as its purpose besides being an R&D facility was also to house the entirety of Gotham's population and safeguard them underground until the coming war was over. Protocols are still in place for mass evacuation into the tower, and every mayor and head of Wayne Enterprises is briefed on the tower's functionality.
