Just across the HoCo border in AA county, the Archdiocese of Baltimore has purchased the Blob’s Park polka hall and about 12.5 acres of land surrounding it. According to the Howard/Arundel Report newsletter the church paid $2.5 million for the building and the land. The long range plan is to build a church and a school on the property but for the time being at least, the oompah music will play on and the beer will continue to flow.
In HoCo the church sold property. Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Ellicott City has sold 14 single family lots adjacent to the school and church for $90,000 per lot to Security Development.
