Henry Hill et al. were household names after the heist, my mom a NYPD PO, and my dad's brother a NYPD Detective knew these guys pretty well.
Plus, I grew up in an old-school mafia neighborhood, so many of the names floating around were locals when I was still young.
My college was at the opposite end of Brooklyn, so I'd leave 6am to catch buses to the train depot in Coney Island, then bus it again to campus in Sheepshead Bay...at an old Army Base at the end of a road, with beach and Amphitheater.
Anyway, by 6 am, not 400' from my house on Eighth Avenue, there would usually be at least one or two white limos double-parked outside Scarlatta's butcher shop.
I always used 'my peripheral vision' to watch.
