The old Roses footprint is going to be the new Acme Supermarket. That entire shopping plaza property is going to be redeveloped into a townhouse community.
You mentioned the Irene hotel. It's not a hotel. It's a condo building that was built in 1973. My parents bought one of the first units number 1207 for $55K - 3 bedroom end unit. Had great times there. I was 14 when they bought it and I am now 64 years old. Wow how time fly's by.
Yeah, some that are being demolished are being rebuilt and more modern. I have no idea what's going on with Maridel, maybe being rebuilt? Merry Christmas to you as well!
Great video jay. Thanks for the yearly review. Hope you, ashley and the kids have a merry Christmas. Cant wait to see your next video. And also have a great new year.
That is some really bad design on those townhouses!! Some of those units get NO light because they're so close together. I wouldn't want to own one. And you're right about the garages! Seems like there are a lot more parking lots in OC now.
Merry Christmas! I enjoy your video updates. Hoping the city doesn’t vote to screw over short term rentals in January. The place we stay over by Acme might be impacted by the change.
Merry Christmas to you too! I don't think they would do anything to short term rentals. They just want the tax money, so once they figure out how to get it they'll be happy.
Wondering about Squarez Pizza @130th. They published winter hours but I've been there on a number of occasions when they were supposed to be open and they have been closed.
Very different, but it also has that same nostolgic feel. I wasn't around in the 70's but from what I've heard from my inlaws and other people commenting....sounds like it was a pretty wild time.
Aw, the Maridel... memories that I cannot expound upon or that have clouded through the mists of time, but I do remember drinking MD 20/20 for the first time and saying, "Is that it?" and being the last man standing. (Also, and by pure coincidence, running into an adorable - aka "smokin' hot" - girl from work staying at the same place - with her boyfriend 😢)
The old Phillips downtown location has been redeveloped into seasonal housing. The east side of the shopping center just north of it will be rezoned for residential.
I know what it is! Its called $200 - $400 a night! Cheaper to go on a cruise or an Airbnb interview Carolina's. Good luck down there early next year when kids don't get out of school till mid June
Lots of people are going to Airbnb's.....even renting in ocean pines. We like school getting out late, because they go back later and we get a few weeks to ourselves when the tourists leave. I didn't think we would like it at first, but it's awesome.
Merry Christmas to all. With all those Luxury Townhomes going up, ocean City must expect a population boom. I don’t think that many folks live down there to make all of them worthwhile. If they plan on folks renting them for summer vacation, the prices will be to high for most folks pocketbooks.
I have a feeling those units will be summer homes and not a lot of full time residents. Although they've been working on trying to make OC a year round vacation spot, so maybe more full time jobs? Merry Christmas to you as well!
North OC townhomes are crazy close. I guess the garage will be used for storage and not vehicles.. Not for me. I'm sure they will sell because its a beach town.
Oh absolutely! They will sell fast. Off subject, but I was casting today with the underwater camera, it's awkward for sure but I'll be able to use it surf fishing in the spring.
They say there's going to be one. And an apartment complex next to it, but I'll believe it when I see it. It's supposed to be across the street by the McDonalds and Aldi.
@maus92 they've been saying it for years. I never believe it until they start building. Classic example is Margaritaville. All the hype and it never happened.
yeppp,,,they say lots of room to get in garage,yes cain woods is allready complaining about other cars and guest parking in the neighborhood,not to mention ALOTof traffic coming from rt 54 developing in del,rt 54 is being developed heavily all the way to rt113.Farms are selling out and you guest it,houses galore,in summer they all head to beach,on yepp rt 54 and need parking in the north end,nobody wants to walk 2 steps so they want to be at coastal hwy to cross,close as they can,so OVERLOAD IS COMING,not to mention the 4th of july on a hot holiday.BIG changes every year,cant stop progress,and del is still going to do bridges on rt54 in the near future,so we'll see .🏖🎄🎄
@@ReelJayB LOWER SLOWER DEL,,yepp still in plans,last i heard they had to move utillites at harpoon hannahs bridge..finished intersection at coastal hwy...soooooo...we"ll see!🤔
The local residents don't like it in their neighborhoods so much, because of all the noise, ( mostly partying out of control people coming and going constantly, they would rather have permanent residents.) but the owners love it because of loopholes in taxes. So their trying to have ordinances where they can only have a few occupants per room, lol it's a mess!
@@DavidWright-sn4tu Their trying to restrict and control it, put a leash on them wild renters. They Don't want to eliminate it, because they would make no revenue!
@@DavidWright-sn4tuThey certainly don't want to eliminate them, then they would make no revenue, their just trying to restrict and control those heathen renters! 🙂
I don’t think most people will care that the town houses are very close to the road. I’m sure most will be bought as an investment. They have a place in Ocean City will be all that matters. It would be interesting to hear what it will cost for a weekly rental. It always fun to hear about what’s going on down there. Merry Christmas to you all.
once again Fountain Head CoA chases out another business. any business that trys to go in there needs to get something in the lease about any complaints from the HoA can be ignored

Have a great holiday season ! Merry Christmas !
as alwayss waiting for and loving your videos, wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too!!
Smashed food is excellent!! We visit them at least once a week when we are there for the season.

I remember when I was a kid, everything seem to be $50-55k, in o.c. lol.
Thanks for the updates. Ex Marylander living in Myrtle Beach. Can't believe how much OC has changed. Same things happening here. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!

Nice update. No matter how bad the townhouses are laid out they will sellout.
Yup! Crazy!
Nothing like a Cup of Coffee ☕ and a stroll through o.c.md! God bless You all, Have a Merry Christmas tnx!

They're doing asbestos remediation at the Beach Plaza before it gets demolished.
boardwalk rocks may 17 and 18th. motley crew ,def leppard, nickelback, 3 doors down Bret Micheals, Bush, Shinedown and others.
Yeah! It's a pretty decent lineup, should be a good show!
Wondering about Squarez Pizza @130th. They published winter hours but I've been there on a number of occasions when they were supposed to be open and they have been closed.
Nooo! They were on my list to do a pizza review! Wonder if they closed for the winter but never updated their hours?
8:39 LoL... Close The Border 😂
Not the Ocean City I remember from the 70s
Very different, but it also has that same nostolgic feel. I wasn't around in the 70's but from what I've heard from my inlaws and other people commenting....sounds like it was a pretty wild time.
Great updates.. Anything new going on under rte 50 bridge area? Anglers,MR Ducks etc?
Haven't heard of anything. Jackspot took over Marina Deck, but that's old(ish) news.
Anglers was renovated this past spring.
With all the events, concerts , etc. OC should have made a ton of money this year.
Yeah. The summer started off VERY slow. There was hardly anyone here for memorial day weekend.
O Man. My Wife and I loved going to Smashed. Happy hour specials were great. ☹️
I've seen a few people comment on how good it is, we'll have to try it before they are sold!
Aw, the Maridel... memories that I cannot expound upon or that have clouded through the mists of time, but I do remember drinking MD 20/20 for the first time and saying, "Is that it?" and being the last man standing.
(Also, and by pure coincidence, running into an adorable - aka "smokin' hot" - girl from work staying at the same place - with her boyfriend 😢)
Hahaha that's hilarious. Those foggy memories are always the best. Seacrets pain in de asses tend to do that to me 🤣
wish Jimmy's would buy the old Phillips place. I think they would do well down there in the summer
That would be awesome!
The old Phillips downtown location has been redeveloped into seasonal housing. The east side of the shopping center just north of it will be rezoned for residential.
There is a proposal for high rise condos in the 94th shopping center looking like it’s likely to happen .
Curious to see if it happens. I don't really believe any of it until they start building.
No, townhouses.
I know what it is! Its called $200 - $400 a night! Cheaper to go on a cruise or an Airbnb interview Carolina's. Good luck down there early next year when kids don't get out of school till mid June

The problem with low-cost rentals is it brings in troublesome visitors. The Delaware resorts figured that out and solved the issue by pricing higher.
How did those movie theater townhomes pass zoning? I thought you need a minimum setback from the highway and the city sidewalk?
I have no idea! I thought so too. Especially for traffic accidents...I'd worry about a car coming into my livingroom!

Great, Look forward to it. I'm sure you'll have to ease into it for any distance.
Is there a Giant supermarket coming near the Mcdonalds on 50 by Home Depot? thought i saw the sign for it last time i was there
They say there's going to be one. And an apartment complex next to it, but I'll believe it when I see it. It's supposed to be across the street by the McDonalds and Aldi.
@@ReelJayB It's happening.

What is the question of a short-term rentals
Not quite sure I understand your question...
The local residents don't like it in their neighborhoods so much, because of all the noise, ( mostly partying out of control people coming and going constantly, they would rather have permanent residents.) but the owners love it because of loopholes in taxes. So their trying to have ordinances where they can only have a few occupants per room, lol it's a mess!
@@victorcharlie7491 Are they trying to eliminate or restrict short term??

I agree. I think anything inside OC will sell, and fast too! Merry Christmas!

Jungle Bar was there for a long time, for as long as I can remember. Not sure why they decided not to renew his lease.
