In this episode of Real Mob Stories with James Proctor, we step into the heart of the Bronx’s Little Italy on Arthur Avenue. Known for its rich Italian culture, authentic food, and lively atmosphere, this iconic neighborhood traces its roots back to Italian immigrants who settled there in the late 19th century. While the 1980s saw hard times due to the crack epidemic, Arthur Avenue endured as a stronghold of Italian heritage—and mob influence.
For decades, the Genovese and Gambino families held sway here, with Genovese Captain Rudolph “Rudy” Santobello running loan sharking, gambling, and policy rackets from his social club, "Club Arthur’s." Later, Genovese Captain “Patsy” Parrello emerged as a powerful figure, operating out of his restaurant, Pasquale’s Rigoletto, which became a local stronghold for mob business. Arthur Avenue’s legacy is storied with incidents like the 1957 hit on Frank Scalise, underboss of the Anastasia family, who was taken out while shopping at a produce shop on this very street. Join us as we explore the fascinating history of Arthur Avenue, where culture and crime meet in the heart of the Bronx.
