Project Description
A new three-story elementary school was constructed (to replace the existing on-site school) in the
heart of Lititz Borough – a pedestrian-friendly community. Lititz Elementary School maximizes two
sites bridging together approximately 4.1 acres. The new design more than satisfied the school
district’s needs and enhanced the character of the local neighborhood through architectural style,
urban site design, and the preservation of building and site elements.
Many site improvements were made including increasing daily and special event parking and
improving site circulation, the streetscape, play areas and outdoor instructional areas. These
features, along with the addition of green space and new storm water management controls,
contributed to the projects recognition with a 2004 Lancaster County Envision Smart Growth
Leadership Award, a 2006 Pennsylvania Planning Association (PPA) Award in the Outstanding
Awards category and a 2009 American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) Pennsylvania /
Delaware Chapter Merit Award in the General Design category.
