Uptown Arts Bar opens Friday

You've probably driven by the three-story brick building at 3611 Broadway hundreds of times over the years — or stumbled out of the building just as many times (it's been some kind of saloon for decades) — without ever knowing that the townhouse-like structure is the Betsy Ross Building.

"The building won a lot of architecture awards in the 1920s," says the building's owner, developer Greg Patterson.
