The Noland Home is located across N Delaware Street from the Truman Home. It was the home of Harry Truman's favorite cousins, Nellie and Ethel Noland. The home was acquired by the park service in 1991. After extensive repairs, the ground floor has been converted into a museum. The museum portion of the house is fully ADA accessible after the renovations with the addition of a ramp along the side of the house at the rear. In addition, ADA accessible restrooms are located on the ground floor.
Free parallel parking is usually available on N Delaware Street or nearby. I visited in August 2017.
