Ravenite Social Club

The Ravenite Social Club was a well-known gathering spot in New York City during the 1970s and 1980s, famously associated with the Gambino crime family, one of the city's major organized crime groups. Located in Little Italy, it served as a meeting place for mob members to plan activities, socialize, and conduct illicit business. The club became emblematic of the Mafia's influence in New York, symbolizing the secretive and hierarchical nature of organized crime during that era. It closed in the late 1980s but remains historically significant for its connection to organized crime history.
