Satriale's pork store from The Sopranos

Filming Location in Kearny, New Jersey, United States

This is the site where Satriale's pork store once stood.

It is situated at 101 Kearny Avenue in Kearny, New Jersey.

Sadly, the building was demolished in October of 2007, just four months after the series finale was aired.

Satriale's is one of the most important filming locations in The Sopranos. During the show, it serves as a key meeting point for Tony and his crew.

In several episodes, members and associates of "the family" hang around outside of the pork store and socialize. A number of important "sitdown" meetings are also held out front.

The DiMeo crime family forcibly took control of the store during the 1970s when the original owner, Francis Satriale, failed to repay a gambling debt.

Because the building was torn down in 2007, it had to be recreated elsewhere for the 2021 film "The Many Saints of Newark".

Demolished

Satriale's no longer exists. However, you can still visit the location.

Satriale's was demolished in October of 2007

This Google Street View image is from 2012. As you can see, it is now an empty lot.

According to newspaper archives, Satriale's was demolished in October of 2007.

The building was owned by Manny Costeira, who leased it to HBO during filming. Originally, Costeira's plan was to knock it down and replace it with a condo containing nine units. However, it seems as though that project never materialized.

After Satriale's was demolished, Costeira made more than $25,000 by selling pieces of the stone facade to fans on the Internet.

"He drives too fast, he's always f**king hitting sh*t."

Episode 11, Season 2 - House Arrest

Shortly after the crash, FBI Agent Harris shows up with his new partner, Joe Marquez. After a brief introduction and some small talk about the New Jersey Nets, the men turn their attention to the accident.

Tony has a flashback

Episode 3, Season 3 - Fortunate Son

In this scene, Tony has a flashback to the time when his father, Johnny Soprano, cut off Francis Satriale's pinky finger over a gambling debt.

Despite being told to wait in the car, Tony goes into the store and witnesses his father carrying out the brutal act with a meat cleaver.

According to Tony's psychiatrist, Dr. Melfi, his panic attacks may have originated from this event.

Paulie Gualtieri's last scene

Episode 21, Season 6 - Made in America

During the show's finale, Paulie Gualtieri sits outside of the store by himself, cutting a lonely figure. This is his last ever scene in The Sopranos.

By this stage, Bobby and Christopher are both dead. Furthermore, Silvio is in a coma and Furio has gone back to Italy.

The emptiness and lack of activity is almost saddening, as it drives home the fact that a lot has changed since the beginning of the series.
