Click image to enlarge. Built in 1844 by Virginia native John Glascock (1817-1897), this house is one of three remaining examples in Tuscaloosa of the Gothic Revival style and one of only approximately three dozen antebellum buildings left in Tuscaloosa. It features handsome cutwork and pointed arch windows, as well as original interior details. Glascock was a cousin of statesman and unsuccessful presidential candidate Henry Clay, who reputedly stayed in the house on several occasions. The area is primarily commercial, and the house would make an excellent potential rehabilitation tax credit project. To date, it has been on the market for over a year with no offer.
