History


Sometime after March 18, 2000, Henry Allen was incarcerated in Iron Heights after being wrongfully convicted for the murder of his wife. He was visited by his son Barry Allen and friend Joe West many times while serving out his sentence.

Oliver Queen and Laurel Lance both went to Iron Heights for an eighth grade field trip.

Peter Declan was held in the prison, though he was later set free when he was acquitted of the charges placed on him.

In late 2012, Oliver was held in the penitentiary after being accused of being the vigilante, The Hood, and subsequently took a polygraph test in an attempt to prove his innocence. He was later set free when John Diggle masqueraded as The Hood whilst Oliver held a party.

In early 2013, Cyrus Vanch was formally released from Iron Heights Prison and was picked up by his associate Vivian.

Moira Queen was held here when she was charged with committing mass murder during "The Undertaking".

After the singularity over Central City was closed by the Flash and Firestorm in mid-2015, Iron Heights opened a separate wing which could hold incarcerated meta-humans.

After Barry and Cisco beat the Rival, he was taken to Iron Heights and put in cell in the meta-human wing. That night, Alchemy scolded him for his failure, and then something with a metal arm entered the cell and killed him.
