Ravenite Social Club

SoHo & Chinatown


Now a designer shoe store, this was once the Ravenite Social Club, an infamous mobster hangout. It was right here that big hitters such as John Gotti (as well as the FBI, who kept a watchful eye from the building across the street) logged time. Only the shop's tile floor remains from the day, the shop windows once an intimidating brick wall.
