“Peoria is steeped in deep tradition and rich heritage and it has long been said that to know that one has ‘made it’ and achieved success, they had to “Play in Peoria.” I am confident the Peoria Riverfront Museum will encompass the best of Peoria and will succeed in telling the story of our great city for generations to come. Since 1898 Better Banks has played in Peoria and is honored to be a part of the legacy of our city. We are proud to have invested in this prodigious project and are excited to see the positive impact it will have on our community.” - Steve Backlund, Chairman
