Arkham Asylum is a criminal care institution for the mentally unstable in Gotham City's Arkham District.

History

Arkham Asylum had been closed for fifteen years. Mayor Aubrey James mentioned that the Wayne Family was in the process of redeveloping the site, tearing down the century-old asylum building and building a modern, state-of-the-art mental health facility in its place. They believed if they could help the city's least fortunate, the new asylum would bring hope to Gotham. Mayor James later stated that Salvatore Maroni will be refurbishing the building.

Later, the plan was more or less scrapped and replaced with a plan to modernize the old building. It was later reopened to house the criminally insane.
