History
Ocean Boulevard is a significant and iconic stretch of roadway located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It's a central part of the city's vibrant tourism industry and has a rich history that spans over a century.
Early Development (Late 19th - Early 20th Century): Ocean Boulevard's history can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. At that time, Myrtle Beach was a quiet, relatively unknown coastal town. The arrival of the railroad in the late 1800s, however, brought the first influx of tourists, drawn by the natural beauty of the area.
The Pavilion Amusement Park: In the early 1900s, the area around Ocean Boulevard began to develop as a resort destination. The construction of the Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park in 1908 was a significant milestone. The Pavilion became a beloved attraction for generations, offering amusements, games, and entertainment for families.
