Learn about the Founding of OC and Ongoing Efforts to Preserve Its Oldest Neighborhood on the first half of the tour, then head to the Boardwalk, passing by beach block mansions along the way. Starting on the Boardwalk from 6th Street, head down to 12th Street, stopping to taste several iconic Boardwalk foods. This introduction to Ocean City will cover the history of the island and much of the best-preserved architecture that still exists, as well as the community's religious heritage and environmental impacts such as beach replenishment. I grew up on the beaches, boardwalk, and avenues of Ocean City, even living there for a time. I understand the complex relationship between the living city today and its history, as well between the people who founded the town and the folks who visit it every year. This tour is a must for anyone who has ever visited Ocean City and wondered how it came to be.
We depart on foot from Parker Miller Home Site at 7th St. and Asbury Ave. then head past: - historic OC Tabernacle - Marrying House - Scotch Hall - Corson House - Fourth Street Life Saving Station - Sally Lake House - Piqua - and Many More Spots - concluding at the S. Wesley Lake House. We then walk from the iconic architectural area of the city to Boardwalk by century-old beach block mansions and historic carriage houses. The final segment of the tour departs from Sixth Street Boardwalk near Beach Volleyball Courts then passes by: - Gillian's - Mini Golf - 7th Street Surf Shop - Johnson's Popcorn - Kohr Bros - Waterpark - Fudge Kitchen - Music Pier - Moorlyn 4 - Primo's - Shriver's Taffy - Mack & Mancos - Hula Grill, Prep's - Playland - Flanders Air Circus - Surf Mall - concluding at historic Jilly's Arcade. This walking tour can be customized to focus in particular on the architecture, churches, shopping districts, or the Boardwalk depending upon the particular interest of the group taking the tour.
