New York Mafia History - St. Johns Cemetery and the Grand Finale!

From Lucky Luciano to Frank Costello… Meyer Lansky to Bugsy Siegel… from Salvatore Maranzano to Joe the boss Masseria… from John Gotti to Paul Castellano… they’re all long gone. Ironically, many of these fierce rivals in life lay eternally side-by-side buried in the same cemetery.
Located in the borough of Queens are many of the cemeteries holding the final resting place of the world’s most notorious mobsters, the stories of their lives continuing to inspire countless movies and TV shows that tell their tales of murder, mystery and mayhem.
Here in St. Johns cemetery lie the bodies of Charles Lucky Luciano (whose birth name was Lucania), Aniello Dellacroce, Vito Genovese, Carlo Gambino, Joe Colombo, Joe Profaci and Salvatore Maranzano. Six of them godfathers of one NY’s five mafia families.
Just a short distance away in Calvary cemetery are buried Tommy Lucchese and Joe The Boss Masseria. Frank Costello lies buried in St. Michael’s cemetery, the powerful Jewish gangster Arnold Rothstein in Union Field cemetery, both in Queens. And Albert Anastasia and Crazy Joe Gallo are both buried in the beautiful Greenwood cemetery in Brooklyn.
As far as boyhood friends Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Siegel, Lansky is buried in Miami… and Bugsy in Hollywood.
