Since Clemenza was the Bronx capo, wouldn't his home have been there? I think the question was about where the filming location of the house was. The Midwood section of Brooklyn has houses of a similar style and closeness (narrow driveways with the garage just off to the right side of the back of the house).

Looks like Midwood to me. When I worked in the funeral business out there, I was at many of those houses for "removals," and they're all strikingly familiar. Now we have to look this up. TurnBULL, help us out!

It looks as though it could have been Avenue T or Avenue S in the lower East streets. I'm betting East 22nd Street around Avenue K. The houses there were slightly larger than the others in Midwood, and judging from the movie, Clemenza's was one of the larger ones.

Here's a picture of the house. I was hoping I'd be able to read the address number (above the door) but I can't: Edit: Those cement flower planters and tiled roofs are all over Midwood.

Gentlemen:
I've found fat Clemenza's house -- check out 1999 East 5th Street in Brooklyn. For confirmation, look at baptism scene, when Clemenza is going to his car with the box. Note the 3 front windows. Compare, and salut! Well, yeah, I just posted a link to the address -- 40 minutes before you discovered it -- in another thread. 
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations
