Maplewood is a historic home located in Columbia, Missouri, United States. It was built by Slater Ensor Lenoir and his wife Margaret Bradford Lenoir in 1877. It is a two-story, Italianate style brick dwelling.[1] [2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

In 1970, the City of Columbia purchased the home and 60acres of surrounding land. This became the Frank G. Nifong Memorial Park.[1] Today, the home is operated jointly by the Boone County Historical Society and the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation.[1]
