  Now turn and walk north on Woodland Boulevard to the Downtown center. 120 South Woodland - Constructed in 1924, the first floor of this building was home to Halsey's Grocery Store. Upstairs patrons could visit the Camel Brothers Cigar Factory. This building was part of one of the largest commercial blocks constructed in DeLand during the early 1920s. The building displays Prairie-style influences, defined by an elaborate cornice, rectangular brick panels, and pilasters.  128 South Woodland - Constructed in 1921, Pick & Pay grocery would relieve any fears of getting a bad apple. Customers strolled through the store and picked their own produce and staples. The only caveat was that they remember to pay on the way out. The building has Prairie style influences. It has rectangular brick panels flanking the sides of the entry and a curvilin-eared roof still based on a masonry vernacular parapet.  138 South Woodland - Smith Feed and Seed occupied this building when it was constructed in 1909. Farming supplies, f'eed, and seed were available for purchase. The building still maintains its masonry vernacular style and the storefront motif with the large windows and awnings that decorate the front. Also, the decorative brick provides ornamentation that might otherwise leave the building plain.  142 South Woodland - This masonry vernacular structure was bui It in 1892. The original occupants are unknown. However, in the 1920s it was the home of the Masonic Lodge. The group lost the build- ing during the Depression. In the late 1930s it was home to the Florida Motor Lines Station. |  | ||
