Correct. Additionally, just East of Jimmy Prato's House/Bar on the same side of the road there was a small plaza where Tony Romeo had his dance studio. Tony was the youngest son of Paul Romeo Sr and his wife Mary Trimble Romeo. The plaza had been razed within the last 10 years. It was at the SW corner of SR 224 and Struthers Rd, diagonally across the road from the historic Little Red SchoolhouseFriendofHenry wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 12:00 pmA fellow I knew operated a Country - Western dance club on the first floor where Jimmy lived on RT.224.coldshoulder wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 9:31 amPoint of clarification -- Carlotta Drive is in the city of Youngstown, not Liberty Township (although it's close).JCB1977 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 7:11 amJoey's wife Joan never moved in to the home, a Doctor purchased it unfinished.

Since Naples was gunned down before this house was finished, do we know if his wife or any other relative actually ever occupied this home? Naples had lived the majority of his adult life in a house on a quiet dead-end street on the north side of Youngstown--Carlotta Drive I believe. Do you have an image of that property?JCB1977 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 20, 2022 6:53 am 3244 Lynn Rd Beaver Twp, OH- Joey Naples (Youngstown Boss, Pittsburgh Family) He was assasinated while standing in the driveway while the mansion was being built by a sniper in a cornfield across the road.

And what about Vincenzo "Briar Hill Jimmy" Prato's residence on the outskirts of Poland. Wasn't it a non-descript 2-story structure that at some point had also been used as a commercial establishment? With a blacktop front yard (former parking area) and fenced in? It would be interesting to see it if it's still standing.
Any images of the three Carabbia brothers' residences, I believe they all lived in Struthers.
Prato lived in the apartment above the bar, called the Starlight Cafe/Lounge out on SR 224 near Struthers Rd. The structure is still there, it still has the fence around the property.
From reading Prato's FBI/DOJ files that you've posted elsewhere here, the eating/drinking establishment on the first floor below Prato's residence was known at various times, likely under different management but also likely just "fronts", as the Starlight Café, Lennie's Lounge, the New Dutch Inn, Guisseppi's Bar & Restaurant, and the White Kitchen.
I was told the crowd at the club got so noisy one night that Jimmy came down carrying a shotgun and told everyone to be quite.
The Starlight Cafe was directly across the street and I'm sure that was one of Jimmy's laundromats

Re: Smaller Crime Family Mobsters' Homes
JCB you've proven to be an expert on all this stuff, but respectfully, you are incorrect here. No part of Carlotta is in Liberty Township.
I'm a nobody compared to you, but I do know my geography and I spent most of my life as a resident of Liberty.
Gypsy Lane, which runs east and west, is the dividing line between Liberty Township (north of Gypsy) and the city of Youngstown (south of Gypsy). Carlotta Drive is about 4 blocks away from Gypsy on the Youngstown side, and it also runs east and west. You may be confusing Carlotta with nearby streets in Liberty that have a somewhat similar sounding name--Cardinal Drive, Belmar Drive, Barth Drive, or Goleta Ave. which runs north and south both in Liberty and Youngstown.
