Inside the former A.J.Wright in Portland ME.

Now a Big Lots, and they of course expanded the backstore leaving the original A.J.Wright signs on the wall.

There were two A.J. Wright stores that I could think of that are now CW Price stores. One in the University Plaza in Amherst, NY and the other one which was I think a Media Play before it became A.J. Wright on Delaware Ave. in Buffalo, NY.

why does this count as a defunct chain? It was mainly a subset of TJ Maxx much like Marshalls  it was pretty much the same store. That said the one in Schenectady is done for.

AJ Wright was a separate chain from TJ MAXX and Marshall's. The difference is the clothing they sold at AJ Wright targeted the hip-hop (or urban) community. And the one in Waterbury, CT had layaway right up til the end unlike TJ Maxx and Marshall's which did away with layaway. The former Waterbury AJ Wright (now TJ MAX) is going to be vacant soon as TJ MAXX is moving to Brass Mill Commons.

There was an AJ Wright in the Crafton-Ingram shopping center near Pittsburgh.
They became a CW Price a couple of years ago.  Drove by the other day and a
G.O.B. sale appeared to be in progress.

There used to be an AJ Wright in a three-store shopping center carved out of an old Forest City home improvement store in Southgate, Michigan. It closed with the chain and became a CW Price a few months later.
