Sonny Franzese also operated out of Queens during his heyday. Big in Jackson Heights according to his son.

Also, I'm not sure about how much of a force he was in the area, but Gambino consigliere Joe Gallo was based in Astoria, Queens.


Joe Laratro the Luchese capo? He was Corona based? I had no idea Luchese (including Neil Migliore) had a Corona faction. I thought it was all Genovese and Bonanno.

Anyone have more info on this lineage?
