The Agency, a tech-savvy brokerage whose agents are paid bonuses based on your satisfaction, has access to buildings across all New York City neighborhoods and price points, but occasionally a gem comes along that stands out from the rest. This week, The Agency shines a spotlight on Mercedes House, an amenity-filled oasis in Midtown West with four different apartment styles.

Designed by Enrique Norton, renowned architect and principal of critically-acclaimed design firm TEN Arquitectos, Mercedes House is one of New York City's latest architectural icons. With its twisting glass and steel, the 32-story tower zigzags skyward, and green terraces cascade from top to bottom. The terraces create space for 10 penthouse-sized apartments, all featuring 360-degree views of the Hudson River and bustling Midtown.

The luxury building is a short walk to Central Park, the Hudson River and Riverside Greenway, Columbus Circle, Times Square and the culinary mecca of Hell's Kitchen. But we understand if you just want to hibernate instead.

Mercedes House is loaded with top-of-the-line facilities and features. Its exclusive fitness center, The Mercedes Club, has a lap pool, recreational pool and a hot tub, plus a state-of-the-art cardio room. There's a separate weight  room, basketball court, individual studios designed specifically for boxing, yoga, dancing or spinning, as well as a sauna and steam room.

Five personal trainers are available by appointment for members, ​ and over 70 instructor-led group classes are scheduled every week in everything from spin, various styles of yoga, zumba, barre, boxing and more.

Massage services are available by appointment, including deep tissue, hot stone, prenatal and Swedish. Waxing, spray tan and eyelash extensions are also available.​

Throughout the building, you'll find all kinds of surprises, from a cafe and juice bar, wireless cafe, media room and a relaxation area with a roaring fireplace.​ A 25,000-square-foot outdoor deck includes a pool, outdoor theaters for schedules films and events, cabanas, a putting green and a bocce ball court.

Apartment types include a studio with full kitchen and walk-in closet, one-bedrooms with a spacious kitchen area and living room, one-bedrooms with a separate office, and two-bedroom two-bathroom apartments. All come with a washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, Viking and SubZero appliances, hardwood floors and floor-to-ceiling windows. Mercedes House allows pets. Ready to see more? Let's take a look at three of the sweetest apartments on offer.

(Above) This two-bedroom, two-bath corner unit lets you see the city that never sleeps from different perspectives.. $5,995/ month. See more or make an appointment >>

(Above) Take a break from work to watch sailboats cruise up and down the Hudson in this corner one-bedroom with a home office. The premium kitchen includes a breakfast island and full appliances. $4,420/ month. See more or make an appointment >>

(Above) For the space and luxury this studio provides, it's relatively easy on the wallet. The unit faces west, overlooking the river. $3,165/ month. See more or make an appointment >>

The Agency eliminates many of the annoyances usually associated with the apartment search. You can search the same listings the pros are searching right on the The Agency' site, and instead of emailing a dozen different brokers, see all your picks with a single agent. Once you’ve signed your lease, The Agency  keeps the perks coming, with exclusive deals on moving companies, cleaners, delivery services and more. In keeping with the firm's ethical ethos, The Agency  donates a portion of every brokerage fee to the housing charity Rebuilding Together NYC, so for each person they help find a home, a family in need can stay in theirs. 


The Agency is a technology-enabled real estate brokerage that is the refreshingly simple way for New Yorkers to buy, sell and rent apartments.
