Downtown

Lancaster's busy and historic downtown is a popular destination.  It is home to two buildings designed by Robert Mills, America's first native architect and the designer of the Washington Monument.  The Courthouse is still in use today and the old jail now houses Emergency Management offices and Tax Commission offices.

The Municipal Association Community Builders team recently completed a Charrette which is our vision for the future of downtown.  For a copy of the Charrette, please e-mail bwells@lancastercitysc.com.  Include your name, mailing address, and whether you would like a CD or paper version of the Charrette.
