Horizontal vs Vertical

I went on a short patrol just to familiarize myself with my new 'home' some.
LA is proving difficult. I'm used to towering skyscrapers, updrafts, labyrinthine alleys. Gotham is a vertical city and it's easy to swing from building to building. LA is like a big wasteland of stubby, ugly buildings. There's none of the gothic beauty of Gotham here, and so far I don't care for it. I spend more time avoiding being seen than I do watching for crime.
What I will probably do is invest in a motorcycle or something so I can patrol on ground level. In Gotham, we had the advantage of the sky where we could keep a watchful eye on things. Los Angeles is a horizontal city and it's actually a bit unsettling. I feel like a lot of my training is going to waste here.
