Lake Merritt

Lakeside living in the heart of the city

Lake Merritt and Adams Point are adjacent Oakland neighborhoods that share benefits. Condominiums and apartments with a handful of Mediterranean and Craftsman homes sprinkled throughout lend this area an urban character. Add beautiful Lake Merritt and its historic boat house surrounded by a broad, three-mile-long walking path and the bustling shopping streets of Lakeshore and Grand, and you have an urban oasis.

Trendy restaurants, jazz clubs, and the historic Grand Lake Theater are an integral part of the community, and downtown Oakland is a short bus ride away. This area is a commuters’ paradise with easy access to public transportation and the Interstate 80, 980, and 580 freeways. It is also a hub for those who wait in line for drivers going to San Francisco. The Lake Merritt/Adams Point area is a vibrant option for those who like convenience and character in their neighborhood.
