Palm Street Neighborhood

The Palm Street Neighborhood is the second cluster in the SACA Homeowner’s Choice program and is distinguished by receiving a 2009 Envision Lancaster County Leadership Award for Community Design and Placemaking. The project was completed in the fall of 2009 and quickly sold out to new homeowners. By emphasizing intelligent renovation rather than demolition, 12 neighborhood structures, each over 100 years old, were preserved in traditional style. In addition, ten new structures were designed to replicate these buildings so that, taken together, all 16 townhomes retain the area’s historical and cultural dimensions.
