When the gangster’s brother Frank was gunned down by police, Frank’s funeral was held in the house. The two-flat sits on a wide 68-foot lot with a spacious layout in each unit. Vintage touches feature large octagon style living rooms, full basement, and a rare brick garage, with tons of wood trim, molding and a full basement.
