On the Market: Al Capone’s Childhood Home

For Douglas Elliman agent Nadia Bartolucci, 21 Garfield Place is more than just the childhood home of legendary mobster, Al Capone: “What makes this house truly special is that the current seller put a special barrier up underground—that way the house will never be flooded through the basement. This is an extremely costly and time consuming undertaking that in the end will help preserve this home for decades,” she told Elliman Insider. The iconic property is located in the highly coveted neighborhood of Park Slope. “The 20-foot-wide townhouse, which has undergone a full renovation, is currently divided into three units: There’s a three-bedroom, 2½-bathroom owner’s duplex with a garden, plus two separate one-bedroom apartments above it that also come with private outdoor space and can be used for rental income.”   — The New York Post.
