Our weekly feature includes photographs from the Ocean City Historical Museum collection and from the modern era.
This week's "Then and Now" features a view of the southeast corner of Eighth Street and Central Avenue from circa 1920.

If you're looking to refinance your mortgage, many use 123 Refinance which will shop the national marketplace of lending companies for you, and you'll likely get a better rate.
