I've read a lot about bookmakers operating out of that area ,and having relationships with NY And Phila ! I mean the little Italy is the best ,and the Redlight district is also happening !
I never hear too much about Baltimore. I think it's a big street gang city but i'm not sure. Maybe the philly crew has someone there since i think it's the closet LCN Family. I think they have some interest in parts of Delaware so maybe Maryland too but thats just a guess..

They said the Gambinos had a small crew in the 70's or 80's and that Phila had people there also . Funny with all the informants from both families ,nobody ever has a Baltimore connection! I think that there are a lot of Zips operating restaurants and pizza shops making big money ! Funny how there are no wannabes operating in Baltimore !

Baltimore's Little Italy is the best.
I didn't even know they had one. Last time i was there the harbor district or whatever you call it was pretty nice but i heard the city is really bad so i really didn't explore too much of it. I'll have to check it out if i ever go there again.
Yes ,Bruno had a guy named Harry Dascenzo ,not sure what happen to him ! I think the Jewish gangsters owned the strip clubs ! Also I think it is safe to say most of the racketeers of the 60 and 70's children went legit ! Also wondered about ocean city Maryland !
After the Bruno hit, the feds found John Stanfa working at a gambino controlled pizza shop in Maryland. But I think the pizza shop was more towards D.C.

There is pic of Harry Dascenzo in the Atlantic City black list.
I believe like many of the old time racketeers ,their Children went on to become Successfull people ! Went to college and didn't need to live that way of life ! Look at New Orleans and Scranton and Pittsburgh ! Same thing !
