Step into a living testament to Cincinnati’s rich history at The Mercantile Apartments. Originally constructed over a century ago, The Mercantile Building stands as a proud symbol of the city’s storied past. Remarkably transformed into an iconic residential landmark, our brand-new apartments pay homage to the building’s heritage through a harmonious blend of classic architectural elements and modern amenities.
With a nod to its distinguished past and an eye toward the future, The Mercantile Apartments for rent in Cincinnati OH epitomize the perfect marriage of old-world charm and contemporary sophistication. Take your place in history and become part of a legacy that spans generations.
At The Mercantile Apartments, we offer an extensive selection of 38 distinct floor plans,
featuring studio, 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments in Cincinnati Ohio housed within the historic Mercantile and Formica Buildings,
alongside luxurious 2 and 3-bedroom penthouses offering unmatched refinement and style.
In the library building, we brought out the Beaux-Arts character and European-inspired elements of the historic building. The common areas feel grand through the use of materials and architectural forms. The residential units are traditional, but current, like the perfect Parisian apartment.
The Formica is a Mid-Century masterpiece, with a minimalist point of view but enough detail that one could imagine Don Draper stepping off the elevator into a swank, but not trend-driven lobby. The units have clean lines and a neutral palette, while the common spaces have a warmer cozy feel.
