The Mercantile Lofts – Work/Live Lofts in Downtown Los Angeles

Gorgeous Live/Work Units

BUILDING

The Mercantile Lofts is a 35-unit boutique condo-quality live/work community centrally located in the Downtown Los Angeles Historic Core. Originally built in 1907 and re-imagined in 2011, with a post-modern architectural lobby and glass curtain wall system, the building artfully combines vintage detailing with a contemporary aesthetic. The Mercantile’s historic features—such as barn-style doors and exposed brick walls—have been highlighted within the context of the building’s modern amenities. These amenities include custom bamboo flooring on some floors, polished concrete flooring on others, stainless-steel appliances and an in-suite washer/dryer unit. Perhaps most unique about the units are their 14 foot ceilings, floor to ceiling windows and floor plans ranging from approximately 1400 to 2000 sf, providing the units with an abundance of volume.

Reminiscent to New York City’s SoHo District, the Historic Core has become one of the most vibrant districts of the newly vitalized Downtown Los Angeles. Located on Main Street, between 6th and 7th Street, The Mercantile Lofts is at the epicenter of unique dining and nightlife. Within walking distance is Cole’s French Dip, one of the oldest operating restaurants in Los Angeles, and a venerable LA institution. Within Cole’s is Varnish, a speak-easy consistently ranked as one of the best mixology bars in the city. The Association, also adjacent to The Mercantile, is a favorite local nightclub—but don’t look for a sign, there is none. Within the keenly curated 6th and Main corridor are other retailers such a Baby Cakes NYC, featuring vegan cupcakes, Mignon, a wine bar, and the Phil Stern Art Gallery. The Historic Core is the epicenter for hip urbanites, yet within reach of Downtown’s other vibrant shopping and work districts—whether the adjacent Fashion District, Financial District or South Park.
