The history

The 33 storey Mercer building was completed in 2015. It’s a two minute walk away from King Street and the Entertainment District. A local investor closed on this corner unit in June and immediately put it up for rent.

Major perks

Tenants have access to an exercise room, sauna and a rooftop deck. Plus, the split bedroom layout would be great for privacy-seeking roommates or families with children.

Possible deal breaker

The master bedroom is a decent size, but the second bedroom and den are both relatively tight:
