New Orleans Mafia Part 1: The Most Dangerous Building Nobody Knows About.

- I am going to be telling the full history of the organization that became the US Mafia and you can't tell that story without starting in New Orleans. As the videos come out the story will become more clear but for now a this is a good introduction to the settings and philosophies that will accompany us.
We check out the Marine Hotel, which was the most dangerous building in the 1840s and 1850s. Sicilian immigrants used it as their base for criminal enterprise and of course there were lots of murders and attempted murders. Its now a gift shop with a very ironic name, since the people working there have no idea what happened within its walls.
Check out the other videos on the channel. I've covered all sorts of subject from the birth of football to hip hop and pirates.

I like how the hotel is right next the Central Grocery. Home of the Muffuletta, a very popular sandwich for New Orleans Sicilians.
It’s right next to Frank’s Italian restaurant. Aka Frank Gagliano

Made them at the Aviary in Rochester Minnesota. DELICIOUS. Especially with Marcello tomatoes.
Central Grocery was destroyed in Hurricane Ida. It is still gutted inside. They do sell the muffulettas downstairs in the liquor store now.
didnt know that but it makes sense. dey good brah
Phily and Baltimore have some very old areas too.
Every since playing the mafia 3 game a few years back, I've became very interested in Italian American history in the south and the smaller less known crime families. Being an Italian myself from BK NYC, I never knew italians settle outside the northeast or midwest. Great series brotha.
And we have muffuletta up here too in certain delis haha
Italians came to the south first
Marcus moore your 100% right. My people came in '21. But i read italian mercenaries fought in the civil war and settled all over the south in the 1860s and 70s, 80s
Believe not or not you can get good pasta and crappy suits here on Canada too
That was a great game
Very interesting. As a mafia-organized crime history aficionado, I love hearing new and little known stories of the underworld. Especially here in the U.S. Not the same old, rehashed John Gotti tales that every one and their mother already knows about. I look forward to following you as you delve deeper into the history of organized crime.
Nice to have learned something new. Congrats on your channel. Another member of The Blessed Tribe supporting.
Wow! Subscribed & thank you.
Hello, thanks for this history!
born and raised in nola. im intrigued, nice work, will keep watching. actually one of my clients as a telecom sales exec back in the day was the marcello family on the westbank. crazy story, i didnt know who they were at the time, i got them on a cold call, walked in and signed em up...i did notice a few bullet holes at the main entrance and an incredible stash of luxury cars inside. the sales admin put in the order and her eyes got real big - do you know who this is?? i also got a plush office afterwards overlooking lake p.
This is the (interesting) history they don't teach you in school.
Guau Maravilloso! 💯✅🥰🌸 Thank you,
Man i use to pass this building all the time never knw it had a history like this
Since you are a historian in the US have you looked into the Nuremberg trials and things like the gayssot law in france or Katyn ?
In germany you can still get in legal trouble if you say the exact same things that Yad Vashem or even Benjamin Netanjahu said about the ww2 timeframe and in german universities this part of history (atleast in the educational part) doesn`t follow the same rules as other parts of history.
I can give a few pointers if you are interested.
Haven't been to Germany yet. Planning a trip in '23.
@@HistoryIlluminated are you still interested in releasing content
Interesting! This was very close to the Gallatin strip, the most dangerous part of the city in the 1840s-50s.
I don't believe the mafia was here yet, or even the Black Hand. Not too many Sicilians yet, either. More 1880s/90s. Black Hand mostly active here in the late 1890s-1910.
Did not know about the Marine Hotel, though--look forward to watching more of your videos.
The book that I am finishing covers everything. The Sicilian Underworld was here a long time before it was taken over by the Mafia.
Gallatin was vastly different than this spot. They might as well have been in two separate cities. One was secretive and foreign while the other was wild and open.
Francesco Domingo death was ruled a Suicide When Asked how he did that to himself a Police Spoke Person said He was "Very Clever"
Too much! Also in this building is Franks, an Italian restaurant that has been open since the 70's and known to be associated with the mob. And their charismatic, sometime doorman/ barker is Johnny Mancuso (same last name as the attacker with the knife in the news clipping ).
Hello 👋 history 😊👍🍺🍺
I stayed in the marriot u walked pass. I have interesting history there. Myb1st time seeing the sign say NOLA, i didnt understand it, didnt register. Beautiful city, with some of the most culture rich environments.
In Tampa, find Scott Deitche, Cigar City mafia.
In NY you want Robin London.
In New Orleans, Strange True Tours, that's me.
You're welcome for the info
The mafia,the drugs,the human trafficing and corruption MUST be STOPPED
Are you positive that was Levee street?
There was another street just a couple blocks downriver and a block closer to the river that runs adjacent to the two blocks of the French Market vendors that was notorious for shootings killings and gangs. Was pretty sure that was Levee street but I could easily be wrong. Also the Italian restaurant to the right of 122 is called “Franks” named for Frank Gagaliano whose family has strong ties to Marcelo. How did you miss that!
Have a look for yourself.
As far as Frank Gagaliano goes, that is not the subject of these videos. I have taken a break to write a book about it. When it comes out I will continue with the series.

That was Gallatin Street, now called French Market Place. The most dangerous street in New Orleans history, which is saying a lot.
So how do u farm trucks?
Truck farming is when food is produced at a massive scale to be sold far away from the farm, usually transported by a truck.
Do you think the new orleans mafia is still around and active???
😎
NO
And..?
Did you say 1855 ?
Your writing a book ? Your a writer?
I am for this subject. There is simply too much to tell in a video so its all getting codified into a book.
Omerta
dont know what that is (muffuletta) but i want 2
Sandwich. Really good.
one will feed at least two people, they're huge
It’s like a big cold cut sandwich with olive spread on a round Italian seed bun
Good video.. if you have insomnia
The "Black Hand" was not a gang, it was a method.
True. It was used in countries around the world--including by the people who killed Franz Ferdinand.
Tf is a truck farmer
You don't know what your talking about buddy .. I hate when ppl go read some Google stuff and then think they know their history... The blank hand in the USA has it's roots in a family that came from Sicily that migrated to Marion Ohio
Too much FACE time.
