It’s a flavorful life at
If the city is your happy place, we’d like to make some introductions. Say hello to Mosaic. A high-rise, 55+ residential hub in the heart of downtown Lancaster. Where 1700s charm meets 2020s buzz. And senior living takes a sweet turn for the urban.
Welcome to Mosaic,
your new, all-in-one-place place
Travel the culinary globe, just across the street at the revitalized Southern Market food hall. Grab some farm-fresh basil at historic Central Market. Walk to concerts, plays, galleries, and baseball games. Or not. Because Mosaic creates its very own adventures du jour. With things to do, from swimming to spa treatments, and art classes to wine tastings. New friends to meet (including furry ones at the dog park). And an entire first floor of gathering places — like a plaza, shops and eateries that bring that city vibe to your literal doorstep.
Here’s what else you’ll find at Mosaic: peace of mind, knowing that you’ve made a financially smart decision. Not only does Mosaic provide you with deeply enriched independent living, but Willow Valley Communities’ innovative Lifecare program. A seamless continuum of care, should you ever need it, with no increase to your monthly service fee. Opening our doors Fall 2025.

At our wine cellar, you’ll find more world-traveling deliciousness, enjoyed by the bottle or glass. Just across the street, the Southern Market food hall (opening January 2022) will offer additional tasty options, seven days a week.
Gatherings your way
How do you like your get-togethers? Over a game of billiards? There’s a room for that. And for movie screenings, rooftop cocktails, games, business meetings and enriching cultural events. Also, you are always welcome to drop by our nearby sister properties, just a few minutes south of Mosaic, to enjoy an additional array of world-class amenities.
A culture of hospitality
Our roots go back to 1984, as local innkeepers whose reputation for outstanding hospitality and cuisine drew guests from across the country. That heritage lives on in Mosaic’s world-class service and genuine care. Our staff includes a full-time Lifestyle Director, as well as spa, fitness, home maintenance, transportation, housekeeping, and on-call nursing teams.
Wellness comes naturally
Here’s how to make healthy living a seamless part of your day: do what brings you joy. Relax with a stone massage. Catch a yoga class. Day trip to the region’s best destinations. Tweak your diet. Swim. Lift. Love your new haircut. A team of experts is right here, ready to support your sense of wellbeing.
Nature is in the house
Breathe in, breathe out. We all thrive with regular doses of fresh air and natural beauty. Mosaic embraces outdoor living with a rooftop urban oasis — a lush, leafy perch for our four-season views. And lovely mini-getaways in our chef’s garden, dog park, and concierge club terrace.
Hello, neighbors
Mosaic is urban life at its best. Not isolated, but creatively integrated with our city’s renowned vibrancy, energy and activity. Mosaic’s first floor is designed for easy, neighborly connections, balancing exclusive amenities with crave-worthy restaurant and café experiences open to all Lancastrians.

DOWNTOWN LANCASTER CITY
Something old, something new
“A hive of culinary diversity,” is how The New York Times describes Lancaster, “a boomlet of upscale bars, breweries, restaurants and art galleries.” The world is taking notice of Lancaster’s rebirth, its spirit of excitement and entrepreneurship. And how this Colonial-era city is becoming home to a new diversity of city lovers, from millennials to empty nesters, eager to live in the middle of it all. Lancaster’s walkable, four-square-mile downtown core isn’t just red-brick picturesque, but pulsing with 300+ places to eat, drink, shop and take in all kinds of culture and entertainment. And Mosaic lies at the heart of it all, at the intersection of Queen and Vine. An ever-fresh wellspring of experiences, culture, and connections.

FOOD HALL & COMMUNITY HUB
Cross the street to Southern Market
Think of it as an extension of your kitchen. Maybe your living room and office too. Built as a farmers market in 1888, Southern Market will once again bring people together over fresh food — and much more. Its centerpiece will be a world-class food hall that celebrates emerging and established chefs, and Lancaster’s heritage of culinary diversity. Not hungry? Sip something wonderful at the coffee shop or bar, or grab some merlot to go at the wine shop. Buckle down on a project in a co-working space. Or host an event in one of the community rooms.
Dig In
Southern Market’s food hall will complement the farm-fresh goods sold at nearby Central Market, the country’s oldest, continuously running public market.
