Alcatraz
Alcatraz was an island in the San Francisco Metropolitan Area, California. This island was north of San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf. One of the many notable structures on this island was a lighthouse.

History 
In 1986, this island, unlabeled, was visible on a MUNI system map. ()

In February 2259 of the alternate reality, this island, again unlabeled, was visible on a map of the bay. This map was part of a collection of graphics and video media that were seen on a powerwall in Admiral 's office at Starfleet Headquarters. Within days, the damaged , on a course for Starfleet Headquarters, collided with the island, resulting in the destruction of the visitors center on the island. Seconds after this collision, the mortally wounded starship plowed into the bay, then regained altitude briefly before plowing into the city's waterfront. ()

In 2399, this island appeared on a satellite image of the bay as Dahj Asha was searching for the location of Jean-Luc Picard. ()

A version of Kathryn Janeway from the year 2404 told her past self in 2378 that one could see Alcatraz from 's ready room on a clear day, because Voyager was a museum located on the Presidio in that timeline. ()
