Alcatraz closed on March 22, 1963 after 29 years of operation. It did not close because of the disappearances of Morris and the Anglins(the decision to close the prison was made long before the disappearance of the three), but because the institution was too expensive to continue operating.

Alcatraz was a prison for big criminals. For example Al Capone and Machine gun Kelly they were huge criminals. It was put on an island so it would be hard for the prisoners to escape. The workers would have to move there because they worked long shifts. It's closed down now but , it's near San Fransisco you can take tours of it there. There were some children on the island but they were protected. The book Al Capone does my shirts sort of gives you a description of Alcatraz as well.
The prison surrounded by water is called Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, commonly known as Alcatraz. Located on Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay, California, it operated from 1934 until 1963 and was home to some of the most notorious criminals in American history. The island's isolation made it a secure facility, and it has since become a popular tourist destination.
