Talbot County Business Center Demolition Scheduled for 2025
As part of Phase Two of the Airfield Modernization Program, Easton Airport is set to begin the demolition of the Talbot County Business Center in early 2025. Most of the structure is expected to be dismantled by spring 2025, with material recycling, site work, and additional projects completed before the end of the year.
The initial stages of the demolition will focus on removing critical systems inside the building that have been decommissioned, as well as mitigating asbestos materials in a controlled and safe manner. These activities will be carefully managed to ensure safety and compliance with all regulations.
The project will take place entirely on airport property, minimizing impacts to the surrounding community. Additionally, the site’s location outside the airport’s runway safety areas, along with the planned use of specialized equipment, ensures no project-related runway closures will be required. Airport operations are expected to continue uninterrupted throughout 2025.
The work site will remain locked and secured throughout the project. The public is reminded that all businesses and former tenants of the Talbot County Business Center have successfully relocated to new locations. The site will remain off-limits to unauthorized personnel for the duration of the project.
This project represents a key step in Easton Airport’s ongoing modernization efforts, which aims to meet modern design standards, enhance safety, and better serve the needs of the region and the aviation community. As an economic engine for Talbot County, Easton Airport contributes nearly $91.5 million in business revenue, supports 542 jobs, and generates $11.3 million in state and local taxes, as highlighted in the Maryland Aviation Administration’s 2023 report on airport benefits.
