This one is in a froofroo part of Brooklyn, and its previous owner will never see its gaudy current renovation as his new residence is in Supermax. Any idea of the original owner, hint, he had an "issue" with the architect? 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.

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.

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. If Charlie left the coffee cans in the back yard, God only knows what it's worth ;-)

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 ;-)

Here is the house that Joey Naples, former Youngstown mob boss was having built when he shot by a sniper rifle from across the street as the gunman was hiding in the cornfield on August 19, 1991
