Gotham
Cultural Icon
Refers to New York as a cultural and creative hub, similar to how Batman's city is depicted in comics.

The film portrayed New York as Gotham, highlighting its vibrant street art scene.
Fictitious Allusion
Understand that Gotham represents a place of intrigue and mystery, much like the fictional city in Batman.

I love how this book captures the Gotham-esque aura of the city at night.
Not Always Negative
Though Gotham implies darkness, it's also used with pride by New Yorkers.

He's a true Gothamite, unfazed by the city's chaotic charm.
