Uptown is a commercial district centered around
the intersection of Lake Street and Hennepin Avenue
in south Minneapolis. It's known for trendy clothing
and furniture stores, hair salons, and coffee shops.
There are bars with live local music and several
movie theaters. It has an annual art fair,
organized by the Uptown
Association. The large "UPTOWN" marquee rising
vertically from the Uptown theater is a local landmark
that helps give the district a unique identity.
