If someone could point me to some stock of pictures with old American architecture that you can see in old movies. Especially mafia films. I'd be thankful.

Mafia  = Italy. AFAIK the most architecture that the US has created are skyscrapers.

"Old American Architecture" is very similar to what you'd find in England circa 1700-1800. It wasn't until a hundred years later or so that we developed our own flair.

Also, our architecture is highly localized. Are you looking for New England architecture? Old South? City? Old West? California? They're all distinct.

Would you mind showing me a piece of each?
