Go through the first set of lights. At the second set of lights (intersects with Bailey Ave.) take a left. At the next set of lights (Bailey and State Street) go straight. Baldwin Street is the first street on the right. Our building is dark brown and is the second building in on the right-hand side. Beware: Baldwin empties out onto Aiken Ave and the State House Building, which is a one-way no entry street, so you will need to turn around and exit the same way that you came in.

There may also be a space on the street from May-October. Long-term Parking: There may be free spots on surrounding side streets. There is paid parking in town, a five minute walk away. There is free parking at the Department of Labor parking lot, the turn for which is a left-hand turn before Bailey Ave (you will see a car shuttle sign - shuttle service Jan-May during the legislative season). There is a walking path which takes about 10 minutes and will put you out on Bailey Ave near the stop light. For your town coordinator click here.
