40 Mercer St

A 14-story boutique condominium in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood, completed in 2007 and composed of a small collection of large, loft-scaled residences. The façades use Jean Nouvel’s signature composition of large colored and mirrored glass panels that introduce dramatic daylight and views to deep-plan interiors. Units are predominantly multi-bedroom layouts with lofty ceiling heights (around 11–12 feet), expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, generous walk-in closets and substantial storage. Interior finishes across residences often include bespoke Molteni/Poggenpohl kitchens with high-end appliances (Gaggenau, Miele, Sub-Zero), hardwood floors, marble and radiant-heated bathroom floors, and custom millwork. Common areas reflect a hotel-forward program developed with Andre Balazs: a striking art-forward lobby, landscaped courtyard, planted roof terrace and pool-house with a T-shaped lap pool. The building’s resident-only wellness facilities include a full fitness center, steam room, sauna, Jacuzzi and treatment/massage rooms. Practical services and building systems emphasize white-glove living: 24-hour concierge and doorman, live-in superintendent, valet, underground private parking with direct elevator access, dedicated storage rooms and elevator service to residence floors. Located on a cobblestoned corner of Mercer Street, the site places residents steps from SoHo’s boutiques, galleries and restaurants while offering a quiet, discreet entrance and a residential experience that blends museum-quality design with full-service amenities.
