Alcatraz ceased operations as a federal prison in 1963 primarily due to its high maintenance costs, deteriorating facilities, and the challenges posed by its remote location. The rise of more modern correctional facilities with better security and rehabilitation options made Alcatraz less viable. Additionally, the prison's reputation for harsh conditions and infamous escapes contributed to its decline in usefulness as a penitentiary. Ultimately, it was closed and later became a historic site and tourist attraction.
