Thanks five

My grandfather is in there. 3 of his brothers. My dad and 2 uncles. My cousin is next to me.
My grandfather had 18 brothers and sisters. He was the youngest. 2 died early on from polio. Biggest family in new haven history to this day.

I struggle with the two I got. Can't imagine.

New haven had 3 Italian neighborhoods. The Hill. Fair Haven. Wooster Square. I'm not counting the Cove/Annex because it's over the bridge. Now there are none. There are still a few grandmothers with the red, white and green flags outside but few and far between. It's all Latino and Black. Everyone moved to the neighboring suburbs. Hamden, West Haven, North Haven.
There are a couple clubs. But there isn't anything significant going on. I've said this before but in my experience you're more apt to see mob guys meeting at golf clubs, restarants, etc.

The two clubs on Wooster are St Mary Madeline and across the street the first independent club. SMM are the old guys. First independent just renovated and they are trying to get members. But why would you want to be a member of a social club?
Now. I'm a member of a Bocce Club. It's sort of like a social club but we play bocce. Hence....bocce club. At least you're doing something. The social clubs on Wooster are boring and after 5 minutes the moth ball smell gets to you. Although I have fond memories as a kid. Pitching quarters in the back. Santa came. (Always got a puzzle). When my cousins died in a fire they threw a huge party to help pay for everything. It felt like family. Different times to say the least.

That's just how it is here. Maybe different where you guys are.

Can't sleep. Never could on vacation. I need my own bed.

The same goes for Pilsen (longtime Mexican neighborhood). These hipsters ruin areas just as much as thugs, they just do the opposite in property value.

I'm ashamed to be in the same age group and "generation" as these jagoffs.

Believe it or not, Pittsburgh & Cleveland have areas like that as well.
Imagethese are some Pittsburgh hipsters I fucking hate these flamers we have them at my gym as well chucky they do cross fit and say dumb shit like eat clean train hard fuck those assholes. I don't know how anyone can possibly get up in the morning look at themselves dress like that and venture into public should just be shot after leaving they're property

Here's me all thinking it's from immigration policies allowing influxes of fanatical followers of 3rd world antiquated belief-systems, predominantly Islamic which believe in imposing by force their bronz age tribal superstitions to law in overthrowing democracy.

And here I learn it's the slightly spoilt liberal mid westerners which are the real threat.

Who says you don't learn something new everyday?
You sound like one

But I will say though, in relation to this subject, with all this gentrification at an excelling rate, this is going to have an influence on Italian organized crime. I think eventually the mafia map is going to be Bronx and Staten Island with pockets of Brooklyn and perhaps an expansion into the state of Jersey as people move.

But when you factor in the onslaught of surveillance and indictments, the changing demographics and the globalization of businesses, online gambling, the digital paper trail... not even Houdini could get out of that. The Mob is probably going to be remembered as a 20th century American phenomenon with Gotti representing the downward spiral. People like EB, Chucky, JCB, maybe even Cheech, that can remember that era when the mob was significant can attest to how swiftly things have changed in the last 20 years alone.
