"OCEAN CITY, Md. – The soon-to-be closure and demolition of the Roses Department Store, a local shopping staple within Ocean City, has sparked a wave of disappointment among locals. The store, known for its wide array of products ranging from food and gardening supplies to dog houses, is considered by many to be an irreplaceable part of the community, having been in Ocean City over 40 years.
The Ocean City Planning Commission is currently reviewing plans to subdivide the 17-acre mall property into four parcels for future redevelopment, with the demolition of Roses being one of the initial steps. This decision has led to an outpouring of support for the store, with locals expressing a strong desire to retain the establishment."
Roses always reminded me of the old Wilmington Dry Goods or K-Mart.
You walk through the door and the smell of cheap flip flops seems to just punch you in the face!
