Dear Friends,

Uncle has informed me that this historic 4100 square foot landmark in Marrero has hit the market. It is reminiscent of the Huey P Long house on Audubon Boulevard, both in the Mediterranean Revival style, but Marcello’s house is both larger and more spectacular, though is in less appealing shape today. Uncle explains that this house was an attempt by Marcello to show he was bigger than the state and its biggest political figure.

In poor taste, there will be a Mafia themed open house on Wednesday, April 8 from 6-9. Mother and I may be in attendance on the public sidewalk, protesting the lionization of Mafioso culture. If you see us, please tell us hello.

Yours,
TulaneLSU

No idea on area but damn that’s cheap for that size. I’m guessing lots of culture

Can you really put a pricetag on the benefit of a Circle K as a neighbor?

Neighborhood has probably just gone to shite since he was there. Amazing how quickly that happens.

With a house that big why would you put the washer and dryer in the kitchen?

I’m sure the FBI had listening devices in the walls.
