Welcome to
Gladstone, Missouri
and Northland KC

The City of Gladstone, Missouri, is a third class City incorporated in 1952. Gladstone is the largest city in population in Clay County and covers a nine square mile area and lies North of the river within the Kansas City, Missouri, Metroplex area.

In 1950, the City of Kansas City annexed land north of the City of North Kansas City to present day Englewood Road. It was in 1951 the people of Linden began to meet and discuss the future of the community. Not wanting to be a part of Kansas City, Linden community leaders fearing annexation formed a group for their incorporation. Among these early leaders were Lynn Allen, Chalky Woods, "Doc" Gould, Joe Berry and others. In 1952 these men beat the City of Kansas City and incorporated Gladstone, Missouri six hours before Kansas City was to annex the area of Linden.
