  Multi-frequency 1.7, 5 and 8.4-GHz VLBA observations of a radio-loud broad
absorption line (BAL) quasar 1045+352 are presented. It is a young compact
steep spectrum (CSS) object and its asymmetric, two-sided morphology on a scale
of several hundred parsecs, extending in two different directions, may suggest
intermittent activity. The young age and unusual morphology of 1045+352 are
arguments in favour of an evolution scenario for BAL quasars, in which the BAL
features appear at a very early stage of their evolution.
