The Miami Beach home that gangster Al Capone died in is slated for demolition.
The nine-bedroom house was bought by developers for $10.75 million earlier this year and due to extensive damage, will be torn down.
The house stands three feet below sea level in a city already reeling from rising waters.
Although the home is up for possible historic designation by the city of Miami Beach, Glaser told the outlet that is not going to stop the new owners’ plans to build a massive new home with eight bedrooms and eight baths.
Capone purchased the house, where the infamous St. Valentine’s Day massacre was apparently planned, for $40,000 in 1928, suffering a fatal heart attack there in 1947.
Meanwhile, Scarface’s granddaughters are auctioning off some of personal items in California including diamond-encrusted jewelry with his initials, family photographs and his favorite handgun.
