The building, built in 2016, features 41 apartments, including three duplex town homes and two penthouses, and includes amenities such as a fitness center, billiard room, 12-foot high ceilings, and wine tasting and storage rooms. The post-war design also adds to the character of the building itself.

4) 25 Mercer Street, #PH

The SoHo building offers large, deluxe apartments, while keeping the number of units low, so tenants won’t have too many neighbors to worry about. It is close to a large number of subways, as well as shops and restaurants. Two pre-war, low-rise buildings were originally built in 1867 but were converted in 2016 to create the five elegant condos. (There’s still one unit left if anyone wants it!)
