Moravian Manor
The historic Moravian Community of Lititz, Pennsylvania is home to the retirement facility known as Moravian Manor. The facility is uniquely designed into the Lititz community with easy access to town facilities.
The complex blends into the surrounding neighborhood through the use of limited building heights, expressing a strong residential character. The Master Plan for Moravian Manor incorporates 16 cottages, 185 independent apartments, and a combined personal care and nursing bed complex that can accommodate 32 personal care patients and 160 nursing patients.
The Moravian Manor site design focuses on a common green space with meandering garden walkways linking the entire campus. Special emphasis is placed on plant material to enhance the scenic beauty of the facility in every season. The gathering spaces were designed at an intimate scale including conversation spaces complete with benches for visitors and residents. The use of low level buildings helps to express a residential character.
