PROPER NAME?

Hi,

How should the people call this place?

... who worked many years at the Bedford Hills women's prison.

Why didn't the person who wrote this capitalize the whole part? What factors to consider?

Is the article there because the word 'prison'? Would the article still be there if the underlined part except 'the' is capitalized?
