Glasgow Village was the home of William Carr Lane, first mayor of St. Louis, Missouri. Dr. Lane was appointed to be the governor of the New Mexico territory in 1852 by President Millard Fillmore.
Glasgow Village, population of 5,429, is conveniently located just off Interstate 270 in St. Louis County, which is the most heavily-populated county in the state of Missouri. This census-designated place is the 137th most-populated area in Missouri and covers a whopping nine-tenths of a square mile. It's also close enough to view the mighty Mississippi River. Glasgow Village is within the confines of a community called Bellefontaine Neighbors, directly to the north of St. Louis, Missouri. The area, purchased in 1838, was the property of one Dr. William Carr Lane, a practicing physician who came from Pennsylvania. When the city of St. Louis became incorporated in 1822, Lane was elected mayor in the following year. He maintained a farmstead known as Bienvenue on his plot of land north of the city, passing it to a daughter, Sarah, and her husband William Glasgow upon his death. The property encompassed the area from the river to the Portland Cement Company and to the north, the Chain of Rocks Park. The Glasgow family gifted the land to the city for development. Visitors to the area note that the streets have names of places or clans of Scotland, the naming of which were in accordance to the Glasgow family will and testament. The town experienced a population boom in the 1950s, following World War II. Today, the town retains much of its historic flair and its convenient location ensures that you're never too far from anything. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Glasgow Village renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.
However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.
Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.
It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.
Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.
However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
