Influence is such a broad term. Influence in regards to what? If you're talking the two most respected, powerful guys, you have to say probably Johnny Bananas or Jimmy Inendino, but they are old, old men. Bananas in particular is a little old man that you can see driving down Harlem every day getting coffee and going home to his little two flat. Those guys aren't active street guys in any way, but they're probably the two most respected elder statesmen & garner the most respect. Johnny never even wanted to be boss, it was dumped on him when Marcello went away the first time. Elmwood park isn't so much active on the street. They've even let Cicero have a lot of their turf. Elmwood is large grocery store chains, huge legitimate companies, casinos, condos, and so forth. Not to say there aren't still feared hard heads in Elmwood, but its absolutely nothing like Cicero, Chinatown, or even grand ave or the heights. If you want real old time, old school Chicago outfit, you go out to Lombard, Westchester, bridgeport, Berwyn, etc. As far as most feared, id say guys like Tootsie & Solly D are still very powerful, very feared individuals. They are still relatively young(ish) & active on the street, especially the Carusos. The older guys aren't anything to worry about anymore, no one is worried about johnny bananas geriatric ass breaking down their door lol. The young guys control a lot now, especially young Cicero guys, and you won't hear their names until 10-15 maybe 20 years from now, if they ever get popped for anything. I'm sure it'll happen eventually
