There is no need to center it all on a single city. I was thinking that each world could have its own geographic gimic. It would help make each world memorable and unique from the others.
The travel mechanism doesn't need to be terribly accessible to the common citizen. In some ways this type of fiction is strengthened by a filter of some sort that makes travel between the worlds hard.
We could also make the geographic gimic interact heavily with the cross-dimensional aspect, which could bring the focus back on the gimic.
