In the shadow of his more prominent brother, Lucchese capo “Joe Cap,” Daniel Capra lived the kind of quiet, disciplined life the old-school borgatas were built upon. Born in the tenements of East Harlem and rising through the ranks of the Gagliano-Lucchese family, “Danny Cap” was far more than a neighborhood fixture; he was a soldier who bridged the gap between the gritty street hustles of the 1920s and the sophisticated garment district rackets of the suburban era.
