I hear there were lots of them back in the 30's in Chinatown.
Are they still around? Not as openly of course but still, are they possible to find?

Default Yeah sure pally boy, 23 skid do, tell 'em Mr chan sent you...

You are kidding right? This is funnier than tourists that want to see "places where Capone and his crew gunned someone down" pr the winners that are sad low income minorities are no long easy to spot in a densely packed Cabrini Green.

Let's just post the location of an active illegal drug selling / consuming spot on a public forum. That is certainly a way to get some value from the inter webs...

Actually you can view places where Capone's crew operated on Al Capone tours in Cicero and on the West Side. Sounds like the OP was watching the HBO Show Boardwalk Empire as this was a central theme of the episode. Chinatown is a lot smaller now. I don't think that lifestyle exists anymore.

If someone knew any locations such as this why would they post it on an internet forum?
