City Facts for Belleville IL

French for “beautiful city,” Belleville was founded in 1814 and is located in St. Clair County, IL. Its population is slightly over 42,000 and it is the most populated city in the Metro-East Region of St. Louis. Scott Air Force Base is located nearby and many military personnel, federal civilian workers, defense contractors, and military retirees live here. By 1874, 100 shaft mines were in operation in and around Belleville and many residents left farming for the coal industry. Coal brought the railroad to Belleville and the city was the first in the state of Illinois to have an electric trolley. In 2011, Belleville was recognized by the National Civil League as an All-American City.

Settled by German immigrants, Belleville’s first home were simple brick cottages known as “German street houses.” Today we call them row homes. There is a wide variety of residential architectural styles in the area, including French Second Empire, Greek Revival, American Foursquare, Italianate, Victorian, and Queen Anne. The city’s historic district is primarily residential and is made up of 73 properties that date from 1830 to 1900. Many of the homes in the district are of the cottage style popular with the early founders.

The Belleville Public Library is the state’s oldest, and early settlers established literary societies as well as theater and choral groups. The city is also home to the Victorian House Museum, an 1866 dwelling that recreates how a typical family of the time lived. It features rotating exhibits of local historical artifacts and other collections.

Bathrooms

Tired of looking at outdated fixtures, lighting, and tile? J.T. McDermott can help make your powder room, hall, or master bathroom design vision into a relaxing reality. We love designing updated master bathrooms. While kitchens may be the hub of the home, the master bath can be a place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Many older homes have bathrooms that are extremely cramped, with too-low sinks, leaking tubs and showers, and little to no counter space. Your new bath can be a true oasis with double sinks, a waterfall shower with bench seat, and a luxurious freestanding tub. Having a master bathroom that is both beautiful and functional can get you off to a great morning start and offer you a serene experience as you prepare for bed.

We hired McDermott several years ago to remodel our bathrooms. We were very satisfied so we hired them again to do our kitchen and laundry room. Unlike the other companies we sought bids from, they offered the services of a decorator at no additional charge. I am easily overwhelmed with choices and Megan was terrific at understanding our style and narrowing my choices to a manageable selection. Philip, our lead contractor was also terrific. He responded quickly and thoroughly to all questions/concerns. Everyone we dealt with on our team was professional and helpful. I would highly recommend them and in fact have several times.
