Easton Hall

The Town of Easton seems to have received its official beginning from an Act of the Assembly of the Province of Maryland dated November 4, 1710. The Act was entitled, "An Act for the Building of a Court House for Talbot County, at Armstrong's Old Field near Pitt's Bridge". Pitt's Bridge crossed a stream forming the headwaters of the Tred Avon or Third Haven River. It was located at a point where North Washington Street crosses this stream, now enclosed in culverts, north of the Talbot town Shopping Center, and passes under the Electric Plant property.

On March 12, 1785, the Legislature passed an Act to erect the Town in Talbot County, and a Commission headed by Jeremiah Banning, was appointed to purchase land and "Lay it Out in the Best and most convenient manner into lots not exceeding one-half acre each". This Act also authorized the Commission to survey the land and lay out the streets as well as name them. The name of the Town was to be known as "Talbot". In 1788 another Act of the Legislature changed the name to "Easton". It is not definitely known why this change was made. Some writers believe that the Town was first known as "East Town" or "East Capital", as it was the seat of the State Government of the Eastern Shore and from this later became Easton.

Trash Removal

Residents are required to take their trash to the dumpsters outside their buildings. Housekeeping handles trash and recycling removal from lobbies, lounges, laundry rooms, and common bathrooms twice a day, ensuring clean and welcoming common areas.

Air Conditioned Building with HVAC System Capable of Switching Between Heating and Cooling

Easton Hall’s HVAC system is fully automated, utilizing sensors to switch between heating and cooling based on outdoor temperatures. This means your room may be heated at night if it’s cold enough and cooled during the day if it’s warm enough. Each unit includes a fan coil for air circulation. While residents cannot adjust the temperature or fan speed, supply temperatures are monitored daily by the Residential Facilities maintenance staff to ensure comfort.
