Reasons to Love Red Hook #3: The best gangsters


Freebird Books on Columbia Street is sponsoring a "Crazy Joe Gallo Walking Tour" of Red Hook and environs. It has inspired some carping about who's the best Red Hook gangster among the posters at Brownstoner.com. Nothing like a little friendly rivalry about unfriendly rivalries to make you glow with neighborhood pride!

Other May events include a photo exhibit of Joe Gallo and company at Work, and a screening of The Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight at Jalopy. And you can pick up a copy of Tom Folsom's book, The Mad Ones, at Freebird. Support your local bookseller, or we will send you "to the mattresses."

for the full schedule.
