In the 1960s-1970s there was a flood of Brooklyn mobsters who wound up being top men in their respective crime families. Most of these men were born around 1940 and they grew up around each other in the Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights area or south Brooklyn. Some gangsters were Sammy Gravano(along with his crew the Rampers), Anthony Casso, Vic Amuso, Michael Franzese, Frankie DeCicco, Roy DeMeo and more. Dominick Montiglio is someone who grew up with some of these guys. Was there more opportunity in Brooklyn during this time? Is that why this era of the mob was to an extent dominated by Brooklyn bred mobsters? Casso and Amuso in particular transferred the power of the lucchese family from Harlem to Brooklyn.
