3.  Alcatraz Island is located in the San Francisco Bay,
offshore from San Francisco, California, United
States. Often referred to as "The Rock", the small island
was developed with facilities for a lighthouse, a military
fortification, a military prison in 1868, and a federal
prison from 1933 until 1963. Beginning in November 1969,
the island was occupied for more than 19 months by a
group of aboriginal people from San Francisco who were
part of a wave of Native activism across the nation with
public protests through the 1970s. In 1972, Alcatraz
became a national recreation area and received
designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1986.

Village, as well as a meeting place and center for cultural
activity. It is operated by the New York City Department of
Parks and Recreation.
 The Park is an open space, dominated byWashington
Arch (1892), with a tradition of celebrating nonconformity.

academic and residential buildings
