Warden's House (Alcatraz Island)

The Warden's House was the home of the wardens of the state penitentiary on Alcatraz Island, off San Francisco. It is located at the northeastern end of the Main Cellblock, next to Alcatraz Lighthouse. The 3-floor 15-room mansion was built in 1921 according to the Golden Gate National Recreational Area signpost,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Warden's House )〕 although some sources say it was built in 1926 or 1929 and had 17 or 18 rooms.
Between 1934 and 1963 the four wardens of Alcatraz resided here including the first warden, James A. Johnston. A house of luxury in stark contrast to the jail next to it, the wardens often held lavish cocktail parties here.The signpost at the spot shows a photograph of a trusted inmate doing chores at the house for the warden and that the house had a terraced garden and greenhouse.〔 The mansion had tall windows, providing fine views of San Francisco Bay.〔
Today the house is a ruin, burned down during the AIM (American Indian Movement) Occupation of Alcatraz on June 1, 1970.〔 Like many sites on the island, the house is reputed to be haunted.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Famous Hauntings )〕 Several guards reported seeing the spectre of a man with mutton-chop sideburns during a party wearing a gray suit and brimmed cap, leaving the room icy cold and extinguishing the fire in the Ben Franklin stove.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ghosts of Alcatraz Island )
