Yes, The Hook took it over in 1979 when Torello died.

Skids Caruso was a made guy who belonged to Taylor St. He ran a Franchise in that area for a long time.
When the Changing of the Guard took place, the REMAINING Taylor St men went in 1 of 3 directions:
1) Direct with Auippa/Cerone
2) With Lombardo who became a Capo, Grand Ave
3) With Torello who became a Capo, 26th St

Skids Caruso was then UNDER Torello.
