About the Uplands...The Uplands neighborhood, developed in 1902, was the first to have a neighborhood association. Today, the voluntary contribution to the neighborhood association of $20 goes toward snow removal on the sidewalks otherwise known as the "snow fund". Neighbors can be seen hanging out on their front porches, a common neighborhood feature. The Uplands hosts an annual picnic in Laura Bradley Park. The 140 acre Laura Bradley Park, which the Farnum home overlooks, has the distinction of being the 2nd park gifted to the Peoria Park District by Lydia Moss Bradley (founder of Bradley University).
