DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – When most people think of Deep Ellum in Dallas, they probably think of bars, night clubs and late-night partying. But schools? “I don’t see how it’s a good environment for them,” said bar owner, Josh Bridges.
Bridges runs the Anvil Pub on Elm Street in Deep Ellum. When Bridges looks out the front window of his pub, he sees the building that is the likely home of Uplift Education’s new charter school. “Why you would pick to do it where you have nine other bars within feet of school property,” asked Bridges. “It just doesn’t make sense to me,” he added.
