The Village Voice this week tells a story that sounds old but is brand new: mob control of New York City's waterfront. "Nearly 50 years after On the Waterfront, a dozen years after [a]
prosecutorial full-court press, here was the Brooklyn U.S. attorney last month,
flanked by the local head of the FBI and the city's top organized-crime cops, at a
press conference announcing the indictment of no less a figure than Genovese
crime family boss Vincent "the Chin" Gigante, his son, and six other alleged mob
figures in a new round of waterfront crimes," Tom Robbins writes in the Voice.
