History[]
Falcone Manor was the home of crime boss Carmine Falcone and his immediate family. It was also the base of operations for all Falcone crime family business-related matters. Carmine Falcone would often host dinners with important city officials, including a congressman and police commissioner Gillian B. Loeb. On one of these occasions, a vigilante known as the Batman burst through the dining room window and threatened everyone present, warning them against their illicit endeavors. [1]
Batman broke into Falcone Manor a second time shortly thereafter. He left Carmine Falcone hog-tied to his bed in his boxer shorts, then took his Rolls-Royce and dumped it in the river.
Carmine also held the wedding reception of his nephew, Johnny Viti at the manor. [2]
With the death of Carmine Falcone, his daughter Sofia Falcone took control of the family and became the head of the household.
