House of Detention—From the Inside
Warden Walter Nin, right, warden for the Brooklyn Detention Complex, and Assistant Deputy Warden Yvonne Jackson lead a media tour of the facility on Friday. The 759-bed jail on Atlantic Avenue was shuttered in 2003 because of budget cuts, but is scheduled to reopen next week and reduce the burden of the Rikers Island jail. A community tour is scheduled to be given on Saturday.
