Mercy Hall has been developed as a new housing facility for the campus contingent of the Sisters of Mercy. This two-story residential building is part of a combined complex with the attached one-story University Community Chapel.

The residential portion has been developed to accommodate approximately twenty-eight (28) Sisters of Mercy in single units with several lounge, visitation and laundry facilities as well as a central kitchen and dining area. Also included within the residential component are two (2) apartments for use by visiting faculty which each include kitchen, living and sleeping quarters accessible through a private entrance.

The Mercy Hall kitchen and dining area provides a warm, community atmosphere for the Sisters to come together and enjoy their meals in an inviting space overlooking the park-like courtyard. During the warmer weather, the adjoining covered porch is an area where the residents may relax and socialize with the student residents of the nearby St. Catherine and Maria Halls.

The main lounge in Mercy Hall is a spacious relaxing space for the Sisters to enjoy themselves on a cold winter evening with a fire in the gas fireplace overlooking Lake Carasaljo. The space affords room to watch television, read a good book or relax in the company of fellow residents and guests.
