APARTMENTS NEAR FRANKLIN & MARSHALL COLLEGE
For students, graduate students, faculty and staff looking for apartments near F&M, The Alistair Apartments pairs an easy connection to Franklin & Marshall College with a home in downtown Lancaster. Campus is close by, while North Queen Street, Central Market and the rest of the city become part of everyday life.
CLOSE TO F&M, AT HOME DOWNTOWN
Franklin & Marshall College is about a 20-minute walk or 3-minute drive from The Alistair, while the Route 8 bus runs nearly door to door in about eight minutes. Classes, meetings, events and work are easy to reach without making campus the center of life outside them.
Back home, North Queen Street brings restaurants, cafés, independent shops and creative businesses within a few blocks. Central Market, Penn Square, galleries and entertainment are all part of the same walkable downtown, giving life away from F&M a setting of its own.
FULL APARTMENT LIVING NEAR F&M
The Alistair offers complete, private apartments rather than dorm-style or traditional student-housing accommodations. Studios, junior one bedrooms and one bedroom residences each have their own kitchen, bath, laundry and living space, creating greater privacy and a clearer separation between campus and home.
That independence works just as naturally for a graduate student settling in after a long day on campus as it does for faculty or staff looking for a residential setting close to work. Home feels like home, not an extension of the college.
LIFE BEYOND CAMPUS
The building carries that same sense of independence into everyday routines. A commercial-grade fitness center makes it easy to work out at home, while the rooftop deck opens onto views across downtown Lancaster. Full-size vented washers and dryers, individually controlled HVAC, blackout blinds in bedrooms and generous storage add comfort where it matters most.
Secured building entry, ButterflyMX video intercom and smartphone access, and secure package delivery add another layer of convenience when classes, research, meetings or work keep the day moving.
