CBGB Reopens as a Mens Clothing Store

Fashion designer John Varvatos' menswear boutique is to open Monday in the same spot where bands like the Ramones and Blondie helped spark a punk rebellion. The store echoes its past, but with a price tag to mirror the times.

Flyers from the 1970s are preserved behind glass on one wall, and the stage has been replaced by a tailoring shop encased with gold Alice Cooper records.

"I wanted to combine music, fashion, memorabilia and really make it like a cultural space," Varvatos told The New York Post in Monday editions.
