Target, international seller of cheap plastic goods, has opened a new store in Manhattan at 4th Street and Avenue A. On opening day, the store featured a facade that included a storefront that resembled CBGBs' famous awning. However, the company replaced "CBGB" with "TRGT." Target also featured several "prop products" that played off of CBGB imagery and themes. The real CBGBs closed in 2006 and famously featured groundbreaking punk bands throughout its history.
