You can clearly see the same window on the left. The trees sure have grown up in front of 120...too bad.
Look how they massacred my boy...

Just got back from NYC last night. Made the trip over to Staten Island to see the "mall". How awesome. A great experience. I also walked the hallway in the Hotel Edison where Luca Brazi walked before he got whacked. If you haven't been there, you gotta go...it's truly awesome.

Hey Chicago Jim, I stayed at the Edison in 03 when I was in NYC and walked the same hallway.  !! I would like to see the mall someday too. TIS

Funny that you say that TIS! Not far from the "Mall" is the church where we see The Corleone's outside after the baptism, the scene where Michael tells Carlo to stay in New York and not go on to Nevada just yet. Well the church is still there, although I think it has been refurbished on the outside since The GF movie, but on the grounds there is a huge CYO center that has been built that could probably accomadate a Gangster BB Bash! Right next to the GF church and only several miles from the "Mall". And it is only about 1/2 mile from my home. SC and I will buy a bus, you all come to NY for a gangster bb bash, and SC and I will drive everyone to all the places in Staten Island, Brooklyn and Manhatten that were used for the GF movies! How's $20 per person sound? Oh, and I know that you are a big Law and Order fan. Well believe it of not the outside of that same church was used on several Law and Order episodes. http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=158855 Don Cardi

How's $20 per person sound? For an extra 5 bucks a head we'll throw in The Bronx location, too! DC and I actually talked about starting a tour business on the old boards. Geez, was that four years ago already? Thanks for that pic, JL. I remember reading about the fire when I first did some research on this a few years back, but I never saw that photo before.
