Honor your house with a historic home plaque
When you display your Historic Home marker, you become a visible part of Ocean City’s living history by celebrating your home, your legacy, and by becoming part of the many wonderful historic homes that are proudly still standing today.
Any home or building anywhere in Ocean City built before 1957 is eligible for a Historic Home Plaque.
