Supplement to Environments for Aging
When the nearby Wilbur
Chocolate Factory complex came
up for sale, Pleasant View leadership recognized the opportunity
for introducing a satellite 55+ community. The location, in the thriving
downtown of Lititz, Pa. and in close
proximity to the existing Pleasant
View campus, was optimum. However, reinventing the 11-acre former
NATHAN COX PHOTOGRAPHY
factory complex required more
capital commitment, debt capacity
and development expertise than a
mid-sized, not-for-profit life plan
community could provide.
Rather than abandoning the idea
altogether, Pleasant View partnered
with a local development company
to take the lead on this multi-use
project. Anchored by the iconic
Wilbur Chocolate Factory, which
has been repurposed into a boutique hotel, marketplace, restaurant,
and luxury condominiums, the
complex will also be home to The
Lofts at Lititz Springs, Pleasant View
Communities' new satellite housing
option.
Minutes from the main campus,
the Lofts will offer access to all
Pleasant View amenities and
services, including its full range of
at home and inpatient healthcare
services. Residents of the 32-unit
apartment building are just steps
away from town parks, restaurants,
shops, and special events. Additionally, The Lofts has a gathering area
on each floor including a fitness
center, library, and business center,
as well as underbuilding parking
and a rooftop amenity with an
outdoor kitchen and birds-eye views
of the downtown.
