MasseriaGiulio

Joe Masseria was the New York boss of the Genovese gang, who famously retired from the family firm at the unspoken behest of Lucky Luciano; (the report at least echoed round the world.)
The Masseria I have been in is just an old country farmhouse in Puglia with no hint of a racket going on - its as quiet as Joe's grave.
The property was falling down when Ian & Lucy found it and put it back together 7 years ago. Registered as an Historic Property, which triggers a whole set of difficult planning laws,I had imagined shady deals worthy of Mafia boss being done to satisfy or circumvent them. In fact by chance, the place lies in two different planning jurisdictions: as only one had it listed on its Historic Register, permission to rebuild the uninhabitable house was sought and obtained from the other one.
after the event, the bypassed official was invited to inspect the work, and he proved sympathetic and content to see that which was fading away renovated.Okumaya devam et
