It depends how you measure the height of its power. Number of guys? Money making schemes? Clout on the Commission? Unions and control over industries? Political influence?
During Frank Costello's reign, they had influence on politicians and judges plus huge gambling empires, but did they have influence over unions and industries like garbage and construction like they did in the 80s?
I go based on wealth. Because we already know they’ve always had strong connections pretty much everywhere. Same for the other families. Which bosses were really kingpins sitting atop the commission? Pretty sure Carlo was that for a while.
