I just had my southern friend (atl) in chicago this week. One of his major impressions from the crime, warehouses, lower level streets, brooding skyscrapers and rain was that it looked like a place where "the joker could actually be real"
not sure that's good

Something I just thought of, though, the grit and roughness was what really made the city.... something I could relate to? All the subway systems I'd ridden had been nice enough and modern (LA, DC, Atlanta, etc...). New York's was just there and screamed, "it's here to be use;," the grit just made it seem all that more legit.
It all did look like somewhere the Joker could exist, but the fact that it did so evoked a persona much too grand for my mind to wrap itself around.
