110 South Woodland Blvd. - 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 probably 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!
