Project Updates

Here are the Happenings from the Lancaster Project Site

Project Update - June 23, 2025

Progress continues steadily at 800 South Queen Street in Lancaster City. Stair towers are being assembled, with Stair Tower B stairs currently being installed, Tower C next, and steel columns underway at Tower A. Interior fireproofing on the first floor is nearly complete and will be followed by framing, insulation, and drywall. Meanwhile, PPL is preparing to relocate power lines to allow safe construction of the second floor. Work will include steel framing, wall panels, and fireproofing. Once that’s done, first-floor mechanical and electrical systems will be installed, paving the way for third-floor steel placement. The project is moving forward toward delivering new housing and retail spaces for the community.

Stay tuned for more milestones as this modern mixed-use building takes shape in Lancaster!

Invest in the Heartbeat of Our Communities:
The OZFund Vision

Imagine a unique fusion where strategic investment meets genuine community transformation. Welcome to OZFund - a beacon for those seeking financial returns and lasting impact on the communities we cherish.

OZFund is a 'Qualified Opportunity Fund' (QOF), bridging private capital to dynamic community redevelopment. Our laser-focused mission? Reviving distressed properties nestled within Central Pennsylvania's ‘Opportunity Zones’ and the Mid-Atlantic regions. We don't just aim to build; we strive to transform – shaping spaces where America's working families can call home, and businesses can flourish.

Our journey has commenced on a resounding note with our flagship project in Lancaster's South Queen Street, an Opportunity Zone. We're carving a landmark with 52 meticulously designed apartments and a 6,700 sf Convenience/Grocery store.

Guiding our vision to reality is a respected, minority-owned multi-family builder, steering the ship as our project manager and construction specialist.

But Lancaster is merely the prelude to our grand symphony. With our eyes set firmly on the horizon, we've charted an ambitious course to launch ten transformative projects over the next decade. Each project is a step closer to reimagining and redefining the essence of community living across Central Pennsylvania and the Mid-Atlantic's heartland. With three more properties already earmarked for acquisition, our ambition scales beyond single projects. We're crafting a legacy.

This strategic diversity is our shield against unforeseen challenges, ensuring your investment is promising and robust.

But here's the clincher: OZFund isn't just an investment; it's a hedge against the tides of inflation. Our chosen markets have showcased rent surges that stand firm against inflation and overshadow it.

Dive into OZFund, where your investment is more than numbers. It's a story, a transformation, and a testament to the communities we rejuvenate. Please stand with us as we redefine landscapes, embark on a ten-fold journey, and etch a legacy of prosperity and growth.

Sustainability Concept

• The entire project will be designed with a commitment to environmental sustainability, and we will reduce unnecessary carbon emissions while maintaining the necessities to support a modern lifestyle.

• In addition to implementing state-of-the-art clean energy technology, redevelopment plans will include a community rooftop garden from which tenants can participate in a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program.

• At every project stage, these efforts require close cooperation of the Mayor and City Council, Lancaster City housing and community organizations, the design team, architects, engineers, and the community. The green building practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.
