	CBGB - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		CBGB, also CBGB's or CB's is a club at the address 315 Bowery in New York City, New York.
		CBGB was founded in 1973, by Hilly Kristal, on the site of his earlier bar Hilly's on the Bowery, which he ran from 1969 to 1972.
		Though CBGB was utilized as a hot spot for touring bands to hit when they came through New York, the scene that kept the bar alive during the 1980s was New York's underground hardcore scene.

		The BRC never billed CBGB’s for rent increases for many years during the 1990s, and in 2001 both parties went to court to resolve the dispute.
		CBGB’s has hired an expeditor to ensure that the city quickly removes the old violations from the public record within a few months.
		A: CBGB’s has been in its current location for more than 31 years and had an excellent relationship with the owners of the building and previous directors of the BRC, who had been happy to renew the lease before.

		CBGB's said it wasn't billed for the increases, but Rosenblatt said the increases were clearly stated in the lease.
		In her ruling, Judge Joan Kenney praised the club's impact on the neighborhood, which she said was plagued by "destitution, degradation and substance abuse" when the club opened in 1973.
		"CBGB has proven itself worthy of being recognized as a landmark -- a rare achievement for any commercial tenant in the ever diverse and competitive real estate market of New York City," she wrote in the ruling, a copy of which was provided to The Associated Press by the Save CBGB's Coalition.

		The BRC had sought to double CBGB's rent from $19,000 to $40,000 and said it wouldn't enter into any talks with Kristal until he paid what the committee claimed was $91,000 in back rent.
		Despite the BRC opting not to renew the lease, a Manhattan civil court judge ruled earlier this month that the historic East Village venue and popular tourist destination could not be evicted simply on the basis of a bookkeeping error that left Kristal so far behind in the rent.
		CBGB' advocates vowed to battle it out with the BRC in court--which might buy the stuffy, graffiti-covered rock mecca some time until a judge settles the matter.

		Because the committee accepted all payments regardless of when they were made for years, its "own conduct demonstrates that time was never of the essence," she said.
