Distinctive Senior Living in New Jersey

Senior living in NJ is bright with possibilities at Lantern Hill, a continuing care retirement community in Union County.

The name Lantern Hill pays homage to New Jersey’s railroading past. Before the days of electricity, a lantern illuminated each station along a passenger’s journey. The light served as a beacon in the night, welcoming weary travelers with the promise of home, or the prospect of adventure.

Today, we continue to light the lantern as a nod to our past and a symbol of a future filled with freedom and opportunity.
