The Moorlyn 4 Theatre in Ocean City will get new life thanks for renovation and reopening plans.
The iconic building at 837 Moorlyn Terrace has survived hurricanes, super storms, neglect, and even a 200-foot move to the east after the "Great Boardwalk Fire of 1927.
"The Moorlyn has long been a dream project for us due to its incredibly rich history in serving Ocean City and surrounding community with entertainment since the early 1900's, the chain said in a Facebook post. "We have a lot of work ahead of us but we can promise you this: Ocean City will soon enjoy a Better Way to See a Movie."
Town Square Entertainment owns Tilton Square Theatre in Northfield, Harbor Square Theatre in Stone Harbor, and Ventnor Square Theatre in Ventnor.
The Moorlyn originally opened in 1905 as a bowling alley. It became a movie theater in 1922 before being relocated to connect with the Boardwalk in 1929. Ocean City Tabernacle bought the theater in 2012.
