Hole or where hid the bodies of their victims in New York
"Hole" called a small area, located on the border of Brooklyn. And this is a real hole in all respects. The streets are just awful around incredibly dirty, the district itself is much lower than the rest of the city, so it can not be connected to the city sewer system, so during heavy rains flooded him well.
The hole is located on the border of two districts - Brooklyn and Queens, with it, each of them prefer to believe that this place does not belong to him and his neighbor. Same story with the police. The hole falls into the area of responsibility of the two police stations and each of them is trying to pretend that it is not in him. Having a historical ignore from the rest of the city, the area has long developed its own laws, and lived a life that few people are interested. At some point, an advantage of such a provision has estimated the New York Mafia and started using one of the sites, as a cemetery for the victims. But it is not something on which put the tombstones, and then, in which the body with a bullet hole in his head wrapped in a carpet and throw a dark night in a shallow pit covered with earth and hope that no one ever finds out about it.

2. Welcome to the Hole! This is the first thing I saw drove in the area.
For a long time for these purposes mafia used the territory along the Belt Parkway-by digging or just throwing the body out there and trying not to repeat myself. At some point it came to the holes, and found that she was perfect for this. Place on the outskirts of the city, not too close and not too far from of highway, and most importantly, no one here was not up to what the case. As a result, one after another, here began to bring their body new victims. Some of them are, some are not found until now. All this continued for many years, and it is possible that the "hole" would never become famous, do not undertake the FBI as follow the current head of the Bonanno clan.

4. The central street.
5. When in 1973 the head of the clan place Bonanno took Philip "Rusty" Rastelli, his leadership began to openly challenge the three "renegade" - capo Philip Giacconi, Al "Sonny Red" Indelicato and Dominick "Big Trin" Trincher. They went so far as to prepare a plot to overthrow him. With the blessing of other families, Rastelli has destroyed all three of them with the help of the then deputy boss Dominic "Sonny Black" Napolitano, as well as through a future boss Joseph "Big Joe" Massino. Two of the three involved in the killing of rebel capos were Benjamin "Lefty" Rudzherrio and capo Dominick "Sonny Black" Napolitano. Rudzherrio made friends with a man calling himself Donnie Brasco, and offered it as a potential member of the family, but Napolitano did not know that Brasco was an FBI agent Joe Pistone undercover. As a result of the operation have been collected a huge amount of evidence, but against family members have been numerous charges. Rudzherrio and Rastelli received lengthy prison sentences.
6. Rastelli's death in 1991 put an end to the period of control over the prison walls, erected on top of Massino. Finally, the family found a man who was able to increase its revenues. Professing a secretive approach to doing business, Massino was engaged not only drug trafficking (in fact compulsory for gang leader), but also those areas that have attracted less attention of the authorities than drugs, namely racket on the stock exchange, money laundering and usury. A close friend of Massino and the head of the Gambino family, John Gotti, has helped renew the membership of the Bonanno family in the Commission.
7. Subsequently, while the bosses of other families prosecuted on charges of drug dealing, Massino managed to avoid any kind of problems, until the killing of Napolitano did not catch up with him. He and his deputy boss, Salvatore Vitale, were charged in 2003 in the murder, also testified against them, and two of their own capo. Vitale, who had been very loyal to his boss, he decided to go over to the government side, as he faces charges in several other murders. Life imprisonment shone before Massino, but in 2004 he became the first serving boss, who became an informant, moving away from his last sentence.
8. It Massino FBI have a place called "The Hole", where in 1981 it was found the body of Alphonse Indelicato. Determined to dig a little deeper, the authorities found the remains of Dominick Trincher Giacconi and Philip, as well as the body of John Favara, a neighbor of the Gambino family boss John Gotti, who struck and killed his son, for which he paid with his life.
For the FBI it was akin to the Gold Rush. They caught up with their employees in yellow rubber boots and blue gloves, and do not rest until they dug up the entire area. As a result, instead of the two capos, they dug up 15 bodies. One of them was Thomas DeSimone, a prototype of Joe Pesci in "Goodfellas," which had been missing in 1981.
9. The site where excavations have led the FBI.
10. In all, at different times, in this and other sites in the vicinity of holes were found in a total of about 200 bodies of victims of the New York Mafia.
Now that the necessary environment is created, you can go to walk through the area.
11. This is one of the few residential buildings in the area.
12. Although it is not clear how people live there at all.
13. Residential houses are side by side with the workshop, empty lots littered with trash and parking trucks.

16. Parking Shoe. Nowhere in the New York City did not see industrial area was so mixed with residential buildings.

18. Local residents have two major problems. The first is the lack of sanitation. Instead, here are the good old pit latrines.
19. Second, this permanent flooding streets. Who is on the street but that's to much raining, but even though it is on the streets of standing water. One can only imagine what is happening in the heavy rain. Due to the low level of the ground is absent here livnevki, leaving water nowhere to go. Sometimes the second problem first and then the flooding of streets weighs not light fragrance dermitsa.
20. Non-residential building. A good half of the buildings here are empty.
21. It is also a huge amount of vacant land. To solve the problem it is necessary to fill the area and raise the territory, but it is necessary to demolish all the houses, but with this problem.
22. Now wait for the owners of the city will move or sell your home.
23. But they are in no hurry to do it. Many live here all my life and they have nowhere to go. For the money they can gain from the sale of their personal sites in New York City can not buy. So sit still waiting for subsidies from the government, and the attention of the press.
24. At the dead-end street came across a bunch of old Volvo. I was curious and I, as an old fan of the brand, went to his view them up close. From one owner and we got to talk to him on the subject of Swedish cars. He was black, a native of the Caribbean, while Volvo and amateur supporter of the old cast iron rear-wheel-school. 960 e with aluminum engine he called none other than «pain in the ass».
25. In the form of heart with very many photos this volvistov obolet blood. This rare 262S man uses as a warehouse of spare parts. As I understand this is his hobby, but he is not averse to earn extra money on the repair of the machine, if the case will stand.
26. After a few quarters starting area, where the ground level raised by means of dumping.
27. When you go there, it seems like that's all good.
28. But it is worth a closer look at home, and you know that is not so. Paved streets, vacant lots and places the new building. On older sections of all the previous low, and where there were old houses, you look from the street directly into the windows of the second floor.
29. That's all there really is. I am standing on the sidewalk.
30. In one of the houses showed US warehouse avtometaloloma.
31. Here volvistov heart bled again.
32. On the opposite side of the holes, the road rests on the man-made monument greedy developers and corrupt officials.
33. The members of the city Legislative Assembly Diane Gordon tied red-handed while taking a bribe from the developer of an empty plot. The plot he received in exchange for the fact that one of the new houses in the cottage will be handed over to Gordon for free. After her arrest, the developer tried to bribe another official, who, to his misfortune, turned out to be an undercover agent, and as a result, too, landed in jail.
34. The official left on the bench for a period of 2 to 6 years old, and on-site construction is now a heap of garbage that dumped here while no one sees.
