Senior Care Group Inks Lease with Meridian for Sixth Bay Area Location

Center for Elders’ Independence (CEI) has signed a lease for approximately 23,000 square feet at Meridian’s recent medical office conversion, Broadway Medical Plaza in the Pill Hill area of Oakland. Sid P. Ewing of Colliers represented Meridian in the lease transaction, and Douglas Hubert and Steve Polito of Sabre Real Estate Group represented CEI for its sixth Bay Area location.

Located at 3901 Broadway, Broadway Medical Plaza was a former assembly hall within blocks of the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Sutter Health, and Kaiser medical campuses. Meridian acquired the 1.25-acre site and building in 2022 to convert it into a 60,000-square-foot medical facility along with a new parking structure.

“As soon as we toured this building, we knew it had the bones to repurpose for medical space,” said Meridian CEO Mike Conn. “It had great zoning and infrastructure, including the ability to house an ambulatory surgery center as well as the footprint to construct a 220-stall parking garage. We recently wrapped up construction of the shell and are eager to complete the CEI buildout.”
