In addition to the entertainment provided by the area's nightspots and lakes, Uptown also has a long history of presenting its residents with a wide range of housing choices, schools,churches and temples, parks, restaurants, and stores. This book uses rare photographs to document and celebrate Uptown’s development from a 19th-century summer retreat and agricultural area into a thriving metropolitan business, entertainment, and residential district.
