See Infamous Al Capone Chicago, Illinois Locations Then and Now

Chicago was a different place during the reign of Al Capone, but some of the many infamous locations he made famous are still around or have been recreated so you can see what the city was like during that era.

The History Channel on YouTube shared a fascinating feature on Al Capone's secret Chicago which revealed what many of the most infamous locations look like in present day. Some of the bars where his prohibition-busting operations were carried out, his hotels/brothels and even the location of the garage where the Valentine's Day Massacre happened are shown.

Wikipedia counts Al Capone's reign in Chicago as a mob boss as 7 years from 1925 through 1931. Al Capone would eventually die in Florida on January 25, 1947, but would be buried in Chicago first in Mount Olivet Cemetery, but his body would be moved later to Mount Carmel Cemetery.
