Well then if you had actually looked at the links provided concerning the Trek and the Specialized Globe bikes you would have noticed they are in fact DESIGNED for an upright position. Don't be so quick to dismiss a bicycle because the manufacturer is known for its race bikes. Both Trek and Specialized put out very respectable commuter bikes that are centered around an upright riding position.

Also, if you plan to do any riding at night to your local restaurant or to a local night event at the park then I would suggest getting a generator hub in your front wheel. They are amazingly maintenance free and reliable.
