The Chelsea Mercantile is a converted pre‑war condominium cluster originally constructed in 1908 and rising roughly 19 stories across four contiguous warehouse buildings. Comprising about 107 loft-style residences — one- to three-bedroom layouts common — the property preserves industrial heritage through high ceilings (around 10–11 feet), exposed architectural columns, oversized tilt-and-turn and floor-to-ceiling windows, and wide open-plan great rooms that favor entertaining. Interiors frequently include hardwood floors, crown moldings, built-in storage, pantry and kitchen islands, den or home-office alcoves, multiple walk-in closets and spa-like primary baths with double vanities and soaking tubs. Shared amenities reflect full-service condo living: 24-hour doorman and concierge, resident manager and live-in superintendent, valet and garage access, an on-site Whole Foods market, fitness and yoga facilities, children’s playroom, in-house laundry/cleaning services and substantial private storage for residents. The building’s planted 10,000 SF roof deck and planted courtyards/gardens provide outdoor respite; many units offer private outdoor spaces of varying sizes. Pet-friendly policies and provisions for in-unit or floor laundry hookups are common. Located in Chelsea, the property sits within walking distance of the High Line, Chelsea Market and multiple subway lines, placing it at the center of dining, gallery and retail corridors and supporting an urban, amenity-rich lifestyle.
