Historical Images: View of Bayfront from 9th Street Bridge

Our weekly feature includes photographs from the Ocean City Historical Museum collection and from the modern era.

This week's "Then and Now" features the view of Ocean City's bayfront looking south from the 9th Street Bridge.

The first image, taken circa 1940, shows a frozen bay taken from the bridge tenders building on the now demolished Beach Thorofare Bridge on Route 52.

The second image, taken in November 2011, shows the view from the mixed use walkway on the new Beach Thorofare Bridge.
