wild bills house is (was?) really nice.. classy and not all fucking gaudy.. nice without standing out.. unlike casso's house.. place looks like a piece of 80's art gone wrong.like if tony Montana and andy Warhol decided to design a house.

According to Al D´Arco, Casso ordered Anthony Fava killed because Fava knew about illegal deals relative to Casso's home. Anthony Fava was the architect who designed Casso´s house. He had also done work on the 19th Hole, the Bay Ridge bar/hangout of Casso and Amuso, and La Donna Rosa, an eatery owned by D'Arco's son, Joseph. But it´s unclear what those "illegal deals" were.

This is not the definition of gaudy. It's modern. I love it. We just built a house like this over here in Jersey for a guy, and it looks pretty similar. Everything on the inside is built in..all the furniture, etc..all built in. It looks very similar to this.
Of course you have to like this modern/contemporary style, but it's not gaudy.
I actually like this one better than the one we built.

I agree I like modern/contemporary houses. Although they have to be drawn architecturally correct. I like that house and trust me I would love to live there, but I think that the shape of some of the house is not exactly appealing to the masses and myself. I think they tried to do too much, and if they just kept it a little simpler it would be a great house.

Casso's house isn't gaudy, but the shape is very different. So if you don't look at it with an open mind, you probably won't find it aesthetically pleasing.

^^^ That third one, Imburgia's, is god-awful. At least it's cheap. No moulding thru the entire house, no granite, some outdoor looking tile on the kitchen floors, carpet dining room floor. Looks like a grandma's home.

Charlie would be 102 right now, as that photo is from the late 1980's. That house had gun turrets, a panic room with an underground elevator and when it was built in the 1960's, it was considered a palace...obviously times have changed and the guys from Pittsburgh/Youngstown/Cleveland didn't like to advertise who they were

Well it's for sale right now and it obviously hasn't had a thing done to upgrade it since it was built in the 50's. Ugly is ugly. But for that price, I'd knock the whole inside down and re do.

A renovation would be ideal, especially in that zip code. A very nice area, especially with many of the new homes that have built around the country club.

Guys like Casso, Palermo and the rest of the NJ boys always have to show off and build mega mansions...then file Chapter 11 when they get sent to the can. Or like Joey Naples from Youngstown, you could build the mansion and piss off everybody then get shot a few months before you move in because you were too flashy. Better to duck than to advertise...like Gambino, live modestly and quietly...not like Castellano...It seems to be a trend for mobsters in NJ and NY to act like the Jersey Housewives and their husbands.

In my real life experiences: Guys like Charlie and Michael would only be considered "flashy" by the size of their bankrolls and the number of 3lb. coffee cans buried wherever ;-)

Today they use pvc piping instead of the coffee cans. One guy Joe Vito had over a million buried in his yard. Him and his brother have a large sports book.

Chuckys house is mostly obscured on Google Maps, I had trouble finding the entrance. Good location for a gangster's house, cars have no real reason to stop near it.
