Nestled within the dynamic
'live-work-play' style community
of Atwater, Echo Lake blends an
upscale and energetic city feel with
all the charm and advantages of a
quaint town setting. Every facet of
the community offers picturesque
views of the 70-acre lake and
surrounding woodland, and brings
you within walking distance of
waterview shopping, dining, and
recreational opportunities.
Echo Lake's location makes it
unique in multiple ways. The Atwater
Quarry redevelopment site is a new
mixed-use community situated

MINNO & WASKO

around an old quarry lake.
The immediate proximity to
the highway gives this location
excellent accessibility to major
job markets, and shopping areas,
large suburban residential areas, as
well as Philadelphia itself. A PreRevolutionary War church with a
thriving and growing congregation,
St. Peter's, still remains between the
Echo Lake site and the balance of
the new residential development.
The importance of the adjacent
residential community is that it
will provide a convenient option
for children of aging seniors to live
while their parent reside at Echo
Lake.
Although Echo Lake is a large
5-story building, it is well organized
into the Independent Living,
Assisted Living and Memory Care
areas with designated entrances.
There is a hospitality floor on the
2nd level and a roof top dining
and activity venue on the 5th
floor. The central portion of the
building is designated for a stateof-the-art wellness center that is
easily accessed by both sides of
the community. The design team
worked extensively with Sage|Life
to create a luxury hospitality
driven design that can meet the
varied needs of its residents.
