  108 South Woodland - J.F. Nahm and R.H. Nahm were the occupants of this building constructed in 1909. The brothers bought stock in the original Haynes and Nahm Compa- ny, which sold Wilys-Overland cars. When the winds shifted and Dodge edged out the former, the business became Nahm and Nahm, and sold Dodge Motor cars. 100 South Woodland Boulevard - An 1883 wooden structure here was replaced in 1887 as a brick structure. Dr. G. W. Fisher owned one of the leading drugstores of the day. The building has undcrgone some cos- metic changes over the years, but the basic masonry vernacular style is still intact. Notice the parapets at thc top of the building and the brick ornamentation.  110 South Woodland - Constructed in 1887, this was the original site of Dr. A.G. Munson's office. He lived upstairs and kept his office down- stairs. All patients needed to do was dial 58 and Dr. Munson would come to come to their aid. The building is constructed in masonry vernacular and features the recessed storefront. Patients proba- bly appreciated this feature. They could be sick and weary and not even have passersby notice that they were in the office. Thank goodness for the awnings! 112 South Woodland - Constructed in 1887, the building was the home of the Volusia Country Record Newspaper. It features a parapet and scaled down brick pilasters on each side. This enhances the decorative brick orna- mentation that is so common in masonry vernacular architecture.  114 South Woodland - This building was built in 1909. It was the home of Western Auto and catered to customers who were intent on keeping those "new-fangled" cars that spooked the horses. |  | ||
