Howard Johnson's
On the day of the murders, the Spilotro brothers drove from their house to this parking lot on West Irving Park Road in Bensenville.
At the time, it was a hotel called Howard Johnson's. These days, it is called Four Points.
When they arrived at the parking lot, they were picked up by a senior Outfit member named "Little Jimmy" Marcello.
In the lead-up to an initiation ritual, it was common procedure to be picked up at a nondescript halfway point, as the location of the ceremony was usually kept secret until the last moment.
When Marcello collected the Spilotro brothers, he drove them to the house on Bryn Mawr Avenue, where they were both beaten to death in the basement.
