In the 1991 film, New Jack City, the character, Nino Brown and his associates, were largely based on the real life Detroit gang The Chambers Brothers. As in the movie, The Chambers Brothers were also known for taking over an apartment complex known as "The Boulevard '' on E. Ferry St. in Detroit (name was changed to "The Carter '' in the film), which was used to house their drug selling operations.
