ARCHIVE, ENTERTAINMENT: The Original Gotham
With the release of the latest Batman movie, “The Dark Knight Rises,” we take a look back at the inspiration for the original Gotham City: 1930’s and 1940’s era New York City.
Gangs ran the streets; Prohibition was enforced and then overturned; and marvels in engineering helped create the city’s iconic landscape, one skyscraper and bridge at a time.
