Description

Opened in 1829, Eastern State Penitentiary was America's first penitentiary. Designed to inspire penitence in the heart of convicts, its prisons walls once housed the famous gangster Al Capone. Today, the site remains as a historic site filled with crumbling cellblocks and empty guard towers. Who knows what you might find?
