The U.S.Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility (USP Florence ADMAX), commonly known as ADX Florence or Supermax, was constructed in 1994. It provides a higher level of security than a maximum security prison. Famous inmates who have resided, or currently reside there are Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, Ramzi Ahmed Yousef and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

The prison is not rendered in detail in the simulator (appears to be autogen from satellite imagery), but the flight provides a sense of the layout and remoteness of the prison.
