Our First Project

The first project the OZFund is developing is the prior Rebmans Property, South Queen Street, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Additional properties may be developed in Opportunity Zone Funds in Central Pennsylvania, the Mid-Atlantic Region and possibly elsewhere.

  • The first project will include 52 rental apartments and 6,700 sf of commercial space designed and managed by Steel Works Construction, who will act as the overall project manager and construction contractor. Steel Works Construction is charged with responsibly maximizing the best use of the existing property to create meaningful living and commercial spaces.
  • A green roof garden has been designed for use by our tenants. Besides the decorative benefit, roof gardens may provide food, temperature control, hydrological benefits, architectural enhancement and recreational opportunities. The practice of cultivating food on the rooftop of buildings is sometimes referred to as rooftop farming. Rooftop farming is usually carried out using hydroponics, aeroponics or other environmentally focused irrigation systems.
  • The OZFund is dedicated to transforming distressed properties into rental housing and commercial spaces. Our team is responsible for identifying, analyzing, structuring, negotiating and managing OZFund projects with an emphasis on affordability and sustainability.
  • The OZFund and its Professional Partners have more than 35 years of start-up company and commercial development experience.
  • We encourage community-minded investors to join us in transforming neighborhoods into thriving economic hubs.

Sustainability Concept

  • The entire project will be designed with a commitment to environmental sustainability. We will make every effort to 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 take part in a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program. 
  • At every stage of the project, these efforts require close cooperation of the Mayor and City Council, Lancaster city housing and community organizations, design team, architects, engineers, and the community at large. The green building practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.
