Cyrus Pinkney

Cyrus Pinkney (サイラス・ピンクニー, Sairasu Pinkunī) was a visionary architect who lived in Gotham City during the mid-1800s. He designed many of the landmark buildings within Gotham City, such as the Gotham Cathedral, the Solomon Wayne Courthouse and the Gotham Merchant's Bank, and constructed them with the financial backing of Judge Solomon Wayne, who was inspired by Cyrus' architectural style and plans for the city. While most people considered Cyrus' architectural style to be dark, dreary, and grotesque, Solomon believed that such architecture would drive away the malevolence within the human heart. Cyrus Pinkney had supposedly died on the night of January 13, 1855, on the eve of his fortieth birthday.
