Buildings marked for demo along St. Louis corridor

OCEAN CITY —Several houses on the west side of St. Louis Avenue south of First Street are slated for demolition this fall and will presumably be used as parking for De Lazy Lizard restaurant.

This includes the building on the corner that was heavily damaged by fire earlier this year, and potentially several other buildings down the block, including the mini storage units located behind the homes.

Maryland property records show the structures were sold by the Trumpower family to OC Land Holdings LLC last May.

Steve Carullo, who owns OC Land Holdings as well as De Lazy Lizard and Dead Freddie’s restaurants, did not respond to a request for more information as of press time.

However, city Zoning Administrator R. Blaine Smith confirmed that the city had issued demolition permits for the properties.
