Production designer on Fox’s Gotham, Doug Kraner says, “The police precinct is emblematic of the entrenched corruption in the city. We wanted an extraordinarily strong image that’s cinematic. We looked at many versions of Gotham that have been done in film and television [including the movies of Tim Burton and Christopher Nolan], but we wanted something fresh.” This set was inspired by “powerful” architecture such as the old Penn Station in New York and the St. Pancras railway station in London, as well as Europe’s Gothic cathedrals. Kraner says, “It has an arch inspired by the train stations and has multiple levels — the bullpen and an upper level — which provide great shooting angles. We also put in a great big window for spectacular lighting.” The goal was not to define a period, though.
