In late November 2024 after many years of trying to acquire the Moton Street property, BAAM became the owner of these properties. These 3 condemned apartment complexes will need to be demolished and developed. BAAM will partner with several community agencies and the town of Easton to redevelop this 2-acre property. We plan to provide parking space for the "BAAM Campus" which includes the Academic and Athletic Center. Additionally we plan to partner with CarePacks and Talbot Thrive, two nonprofit organizations that serve the Talbot County community. We will add storage space for BAAM and these two organizations. CarePacks provides food for those in need and Talbot Thrive will be a partner once the Traffic Garden is built and they will provide bikes and helmets for youth and adults who need it. The storage facility will also have a 10-15 student experiential learning classroom that will offer hands on learning experience for those youth and adults who are engaged with BAAM and partners like Chesapeake College in trades programming, such as HVAC, plumbing, construction, etc. The Community Garden and Traffic Garden will be designed to merge with Moton Park and allow easy access for youth and families to enjoy the open space and amenities that Moton Park and BAAM will offer.
