Gotham

Gotham City by Anton Furst,

Gotham by Anton Furst

From The Architecture of the Comic Book City:

Of Gotham City’s later iterations, the city undergoes a great transformation into fully-realized dystopia, as evidenced by the Gotham of Batman: The Destroyer Series and Anton Furst’s conceptual drawings for Tim Burton’s Batman. In the Destroyer comics, which themselves acted as a tie-in to the Burton film, Batman navigates a dying metropolis, a monochromatic world of crumbling infrastructure and derelict monuments.
