Fact text

  • Maplewood is home to 3M's corporate headquarters, so Post-it Notes and Scotch Tape are basically local products.
  • Despite being called Maplewood, the city's own historical society director confirms there are no maple trees in Maplewood.
  • The city incorporated in 1957 largely because locals feared Saint Paul would annex them, and it worked, by a 5-to-1 vote.
  • Maplewood's odd L-shape actually came from Saint Paul gobbling up nearby land over the decades, leaving the city with a quirky 7.5-mile southern leg.
