Course Detail: PEHI - False Basements, Mafia and Moonshine: A look at the Prohibition Era on the Hill

Come to the Hill where our Host Joey DeGregorio will provide you with his fascinating narrative and tour of the Hill during the Prohibition Era. He will narrate all that he has learned about this time and hold nothing back. We will visit some of the "hot spots" and also see evidence of "false basements" where the stills were hidden. Was there really a Mafia presence on the Hill? Were there any "incidents"? How did they make moonshine in an urban setting where venting is critical but a dead giveaway too? All these aspects and more will be woven together in story after story. So, make yourself an offer you can't refuse and join Joe and his "Gun Moll" Christeena on this trek going back over one hundred years. Lunch is not included and you will be able to eat anywhere you would like on the hill after the tour completes.
