Old building where is a feminine prison (Saint Ane Prison) at the north zone of Sao Paulo city. This was part of the notorious Carandiru Prison, where 111 eleven prisoners were killed by the police after a rebellion in 2th, october, 1992. Nowadays remains, from those Carandiru buildings, only the Feminine and the Romão Gomes Prison (prison to policemen). The rest of the area has now (in construction) a University and a park called Parque da Juventude (see more about it next post).
