I live less than 5 mins away from here and would just like to add that this house recently went under a major renovation. So it didn't look exactly like this when Paul lived there. It is much much more extravagant now compared to when he lived in it. Solid video!

People say Castellano was more a business man but he was totally ruthless vis-a-vis getting rid of people including two of his daughters boyfriends, great work here again mate you are the top of the tree at these videos, its amazing driving up to the house imagine the energy around it with his captains going there amazing history, Neil Dellacroce, Gotti, Gravano. Frankie Nose and Frankie DeCicco and so many more. Castellano was a massive guy too.

I lived a few houses away from the early 70s through the late 80s and watched the Castellano home being built in the late 70s. The home was definitely more subdued than it is today; the original exterior was a yellowish brick colonial with a rounded portico and two columns. The neighborhood kids and I would wave to the security cameras as we went by on our bikes.

Just a quick fact- Paul Castellano was liked by the majority of the capos and crews. There were a few capos and crews that were angry and a bit jealous because Carlo passed over Neil Dellacroce for boss so they would move up by association. Paul was a great business minded boss and became Boss of all Bosses on the Commission. When he started sleeping with the maid and flaunting it is when people started becoming angry and disgruntled. Then tapes came up that led to indictments which further cemented his unpopular position.
@coryvallad7578
@coryvallad7578 2 жыл бұрын
The tapes had nothing with making people hate Paul the tapes actually were gonna make Paul mad bc John and his crew were on them admitting to selling drugs which was against the rules Paul was a real old school guy most of the commission was it was a known fact if you delt drugs you got killed so John hit him before he hit them

Don't know if your aware, but had you gone down that short side street next to Paulies home, you would've been in the front of Paulies lawyer, the late James LaRossa's, house. Pauls attorney literally lived across the street. I know this cause I did the stucco with a guy on his home. Cameras everywhere, including on the skylights glass on the ceiling. My father was in Paulies home several times and shared that the home was beautiful inside. I was there when I was a kid with my father. The gentleman who painted Paulies home gave my father the drop cloths after he was done with the home. After my father passed away, my mother threw the drop cloths away, unaware that they were used on Paulies home. Anyway, I enjoyed the video. Brought back many memories growing up in that area and of past days.

The feds drugged his dogs with "special" meatballs loaded with drugs. They broke in carefully and took pictures of lamps and furniture only to contact the manufacturers and get identical copies made to load with wiretap equipment and repeat the process and swap them out. At some point in the investigation they snatched up the maid and threatened to deport her and her family if she didn't cooperate. As a bonus they would handle the paperwork for her other relatives to get them into the country quicker. Just a few of the things I read in a book written by one of the feds after he retired.

Many mob documentaries state that this house caused Gotti, and others, to really hate Castellano, as he saw himself as more like a king, than the boss, and certainly not " one of the guys ."

Two houses I would never sell…Corleone house because The Godfather is my favorite movie and Castellano’s house is a real deal dream home…that is a mansion worth every penny he spent getting it built…both are easily worth the asking price from not only value but, historical significance as well

I'm hooked on your vids now and I subscribed. I heard with the Godfather house that prop-department built-up the low front walls to give the house a more fortress look for the movie. Temporary of course. Wow, Paul's house was so over the top. The architect must've iced wedding cakes before changing careers. Just too much. Man, to live in one of the houses in NYC, you know you're rolling dough. The taxes alone must be insane.

Pretty sad to know that so much history went down in one house. Little did he know that when he left his home that afternoon, it would be his last time at the white house. It must've been pretty haunting for all those involved such as his children, his wife and relatives. Even his live-in maid Gloria must've had the shock of her life. I heard she instantly packed her belongings, took $18K and flew back to Colombia. What became of the house as far as ownership? Was it passed down to his children or was it taken from him after the Commission trial was concluded? Did his family sell it? I always wondered. Imagine owning that and not returning to it one evening.

As I understood it, his wife and daughter did live in the house for a little while after his murder, I wanna say maybe for a few years. At some point, they did eventually sell it. Don't know to who, though, and I also couldn't tell you who owns it now.
