One Lake Merritt Capital Stack
$66M in financing committed - construction and completion guarantees secured!

Historic restorations take vision, experience and capital. To bring One Lake Merritt to life, a total of $143M will be invested over a three year period. With 35% of our funding secured, a financing guarantee from our financial partners, and strong interest from our bond issuer for $70+M, One Lake Merritt puts three times the investment of the competing project on the table, today!

This is a pivotal time for development in Oakland and the amount of new financing options for new projects is truly astounding. This is Oakland's time for bold moves, and Creative Development Partners' extended team has generated significant interest from a varied, but balanced array of financing entities to provide a market-driven solution to many of the community-based challenges facing Oakland and its residents.
