Yes to a degree. It was originally owned by the infamous Joe Todaro Sr/Jr but from my understanding the 3rd generation Joe does not want it, it was handed over to a nephew instead.

The FBI describes Todaro Jr., according to a story in The Buffalo News, as a life long criminal who, with his father, runs a Buffalo organized crime family responsible for murders, loansharking, narcotics traffic, gambling and other assorted crimes.
Todaro Sr. is semi-retired and lives in Florida. His son, now 53, runs one of Buffalo's most popular pizza restaurants, La Nova, and frequently donates large numbers of pizzas to various charities, including National Guard troops called up for Desert Storm a few years ago. He has never been convicted of a felony and his attorneys through the years have always denied FBI allegations about his mob connections. But this didn't make any difference to the hearing officer, Peter Vaira, appointed by the International to root out mob influence from Local 210. Out of 28 people accused of associating with the mob, he found charges credible against 17, including Joseph Todaro Jr. Junior resigned his job as a business representative for the local in 1990
