Downtown

The largest and southernmost of the three large islands that make up the core of Gotham City. The northeastern part of the island, connected by many bridges to Midtown, is the Fashion District - where many high profile fashion companies keep their headquarters and sell their wares to the most fashion-conscious of the city. The area just south of the Fashion District is dominated by Gotham City's municipal buildings, including City Hall, the main Courthouse, and the other trappings of the government. Just south of that, along the south-eastern edge of the island, is the Financial District - home of the Gotham City Stock Exchange and other businesses that make money primarily by moving money around. Just west of the Fashion District and south of Robinson Park is the Diamond District, so called because of the many businesses there that deal in fine jewelry, and the apartments above these businesses as well as those in the Fashion District are where many of Gotham's elite have their penthouses. South of that is Old Gotham - the location of Wayne Tower, the headquarters of the GCPD, as well as several of the city's more historical landmarks. The northwestern part of the island, known simply as the Upper West Side, is much more industrial and contains most of the city's commercial docks, warehouses, and the other services required to get goods into and out of the city. Meanwhile, the southwestern part of the island contains Gotham's Chinatown - the city's Asian district.
