Alcatraz Island

Self-Guiding Trail
Post Exchange/Officers' Club
[Officer Club] Soldiers needed amenities at this isolated post. Before 1934 this building was the PX or Post Exchange (General Store). During the Federal prison years it was a recreation hall and Officers' Club with a dance floor, soda fountain, gymnasium, and two-lane bowling alley for the correctional officers and their families.

[Post Exchange] Behind the Officers' Club are the Quartermaster Warehouse and power plant, also constructed by the Army.
