Al Capone's Real Vault

Al Capone's real vault may have been found when a pizzeria renovated an old bank. The vault is now preserved underground, and you can see it through a glass floor.

[Marc Dworkin, 01/25/2025]

According to its accompanying plaque, the pizzeria "exercised great care to preserve the room exactly as found" -- which, we guess, included the plastic skeleton wearing the pinstripe suit.
