A garden that was kept on the island by the family members of guards and other administrators. Today we met Jolene Babyak, whose father was Associate Warden at the time of the riots. She was 15 years of age at the time. Has written a number of books on her personal experiences living on the island. We purchased one of her books (Breaking the Rock) and had it autograhed by her.

The apartment quarters for the families.




Convict community shower room. Can't imagine what this looked like with Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly or Robert Stroud (Birdman of Alcatraz) showering at the same time.
