@georgetakei I believe that Island was named when California was part of Spain. The fort, barracks, and prison were named for the island and later when that was converted to a federal prison the old name continued. I would absolutely support renaming it jailhouse Rock! Although there might be an IP issue with using that name, someone should absolutely check that out! 😁

@georgetakei it greatly predates Elvis Presley. And thus I ruin another really funny observation.

To be fair, I think it was named before Elvis was alive and recording, but yes, absolutely.
