Lake Merritt Lodge is a
92-room full service Micro Unit facility, catering to some of our most vulnerable citizens in Oakland.
In 2013, Mahnaz Khazen, a real estate developer with a passion for urban revitalization, together with her partners, came across an historic but derelict building in Oakland and saw great potential. The result was a year of extensive renovations to the building which led to the revival of the historic Lake Merritt Lodge to its original beauty and purpose.
