Welcome,jestlloyd. Congrats on your first post!
You will have great fun learning how to make a "placemark". Your prison-training facility is already placemarked in this earlier post.

To see how it's done, click here!

Again....welcome to our Community!!

Hi, Just a correction to the positioning of your placemark for Northland Prison, Kaikohe, NEW ZEALAND. You have it placed in the midst of a residential area, its correct title is "Northland Region Correction Facility" and can be found at the below co-ordinates.

lat=-35.3972222222
lon=173.860737285

I didn't find your placemark until after I had placed mine due to the different name and location.

Happy New Year!!

Michele

Here are a few prisons from the state of Tamilnadu, India

Most of them, especially the one at 'Puzhal' look beautiful !

The following is a link to the prison sites in the US, which give you addresses for the US state prisons. http://www.writeaprisoner.com/departmentstate.asp
Also, I have an icon of a prison tower. I can email to you if you would like to use it - free of course.
I spent 18 years in prison (12 at A.D. Hughes, in Texas) for a crime I did not commit (see: www.innocenceproject.org) and am in the process of modelling the Hughes Unit for a 3-D tour. I don't know what I am doing yet so this might take some time.
Best wishes.

True, but the placemark is very close. Look South and a little east, .8 miles, and you can see the prison with an almost square road around it.
