Summary
[edit]DescriptionVisiting Alcatraz (4559366019).jpg |
On this past Sunday I visited Alcatraz Island, which is the home of the infamous Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary. Many of the buildings have rapidly decayed since the prison was closed in 1963 and some were badly damaged in fires. The island itself is beautiful and was especially beautiful on Sunday. It was a warm day and the recent rains made all the vegetation lush and green and many of the flowering plants were blooming. It was so weird to see so much beauty intermixed with so much decay. This photo shows the Lighthouse, which is still operational, and the ruins of the Warden's house. If memory serves correctly, the Warden's house was destroyed by fire during the American Indian Occupation. |
