"Greenwood is one of the earliest remaining homes in Columbia and Boone County. It is a remarkable example of the Federal style as interpreted locally and exhibits a high degree of preservation of original features. It has additional historical significance as the former home of Walter Raleigh Lenoir, an early Missouri pioneer whose family correspondence provides valuable historical documentation of life in Missouri in the second quarter of the nineteenth century." ~ National Register Nomination Form
