While the UpTown Center located on 123rd Street has been in operation for the past year, they have officially claimed their territory in Ocean City with a ribbon cutting executed by the Ocean City Chamber of Commerce. Developed by Peck and Patti Miller, The UpTown Center is conveniently located right on Coastal Highway close to landmark hotels and Northside Park, famous for sporting events, family events and a summer concert series. So, what can you expect when you visit the UpTown Center? Let’s take a little walk through the wonderful options! Important to note: we will let you decide where to begin. The list below is simply a suggestion provided by the ShoreBread crew.
