释义 |
Arthur Kill Correctional Facility was a medium security correctional facility opened in 1976 and operated by what was then the New York State Department of Correctional Services. Arthur Kill was located in New York City in the Borough of Staten Island, along Arthur Kill Road in the Charleston area. The prison had a capacity of 931 male inmates. In 2011, when it closed, the prison had 408 employees, including 315 security employees.[1] Because of dropping prison population, due to revised sentencing guidelines, some prisons were to be closed. Upstate lawmakers were adamant that it shouldn't be just upstate prisons. The other prisons closed in 2011 — Buffalo, Fulton, Mid-Orange, Mt. McGregor, Oneida, Summit — were all upstate. The prison property bordered Arthur Kill, a waterway that separates Staten Island from New Jersey. The {{convert|260|acre|km2|adj=on}} Clay Pit Ponds State Park Preserve is located just south of the prison site. Part of its site contains buried truck trailers and is potentially contaminated; the decision was made to "deal" with the abandoned trailers' contents in this way. The site formerly served as a 650-bed drug rehabilitation center, with an indoor swimming pool (closed when it became a prison);[2] the housing of that unit was destroyed by fire. Sixteen housing (dormitory) units, the medical building and the SHU or Special Housing Unit were built just before or while it was a prison. In the summer of 2006, the Arthur Kill Correctional Facility was used to shoot scenes for the juvenile detention center shown in the film Tenderness.[3] Broadway StagesAfter the facility was closed in 2011 as part of Governor Andrew Cuomo's prison closing program,[4] Broadway Stages, which already operates sound stages elsewhere in the city, negotiated with New York State to purchase the prison property for use in films and productions needing "real" prison experiences.[5][6] In May 2017, Broadway Stages announced it was filming the upcoming Ocean's 8 project at the facility.[7] In addition, the 2018 season of Orange Is the New Black is filming at the facility.[8] References1. ^Annese John and Tom Wrobleski.
