To answer Mr. Barone's question, the map of Gotham City in the DC Heroes role
playing game is in fact a map of Rhode Island.  The scale has been changed to
make it city sized, and whatever landmarks DC decided were necessary were
superimposed on it.  Star City looks a lot like Chicago, Metropolis is New
York.  Only Central City is not really identifiable as anything, with no
coast or lake shores to use as a guide.

The game doesn't really give more than rough geography.  I'm running Gotham
City in our local campaign, and I've said it's "south of Boston and North
of New York and Metropolis."
