Ocean City real estate agent and historian Ken Cooper will present a history of local real estate, “Ocean City: 135th Year, My how you’ve changed,” at 7 p.m. Thursday (Aug. 7) at the Ocean City Historical Museum.
The lecture is free and open to the public. The museum is part of the Ocean City Community Center at 1735 Simpson Avenue.
A longtime resident of Ocean City, Cooper will review his years in real estate and his observations about the historic changes in the city.

He also serves on the Ocean City Historic Preservation Commission, the Ocean City Environmental Commission, as chairman for the Ocean City Community Center Association, director on the Ocean City Board of Realtors, First Night Ocean City Committee, Community Emergency Response Team Member, New Jersey Association of Realtor’s Communications and Public Relations Committee Member, and was treasurer of the Committee to Preserve Ocean City.
