Reading through the most recent issue of Dothan Magazine, I found an article titled “The Best of Dothan”. The story was simply a compilation of some of the great and unique things Dothan has to offer both citizens and visitors alike. One particular entry caught my eye, and that was "Best street for a scenic drive". The portion of Woodland Avenue between West Main Street and Fortner Street was highlighted as having some of the most interesting homes and architecture in Dothan.
Specifically, I wanted to focus on the section from West Main up to South Orange, right behind the Dothan Country Club (see map below). There are several different styles of homes in the area; each piece of real estate offering something different from the rest.
This spanish style building is formerly a residence, but is currently an accounting office. It is also one of Dothan’s most recognized real estate landmarks, and marks the starting point of the annual Azalea-Dogwood Trail in Dothan every spring.
Arguably the most unique facade of any real estate in Dothan, this home has a unique Tudor style.
The Federal style of these two homes gives a very formal appearance.
The modern rancher, typical of other areas of Dothan and the prevelant style in Dothan real estate.
These two are new construction homes built within the past couple of years, and have distinct features that blend well with the neighborhood.

I will be looking at some other streets in Dothan in the coming weeks and months to highlight as scenic drives. If you have a favorite, let me know by commenting below.
