Northeastern Supply, a Baltimore-based distributor of plumbing and HVAC equipment and supplies, donated their West Baltimore, Sandtown Store & Warehouse, valued at $2.2 million to the resurrection Sandtown Project in support of the community revitalization effort.
A transfer-of-property ceremony took place at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Baker Street in an empty lot and boarded up row homes in Baltimore. With many people attending from and around the community, remarks were given by Bishop Latrell Miller Easterling, Episcopal Leader of the Baltimore Washington Conference of the United Methodist Church; Steve Cook, CEO of Northeastern Supply; State Senator Antonio Hayes; Comptroller of the state of Maryland and Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate, Peter Franchot; as well as from residents, community and business leaders who work and live in Sandtown. They all gathered to celebrate the cook family and their donation and talk about their plans for the new space.
