About Mercer Commons

Lovely Art Deco inspired apartment building in the garden style. The apartments are painted in an off white latex with high lighted biscuit door frames. The floors are part broadloom, and part hardwood floors, which have been sanded, sealed, and varnished to a high luster. All kitchen appliances are included. The suites have a full eat-in galley kitchen, as well as ample closet and storage space. This is a beautifully maintained apartment garden style building, with active and caring management. We are blocks from University of Buffalo, Delaware park, Buffalo Zoo, Canisius college and the Buffalo Medical Campus and an easy subway ride to downtown. We are also close to the abundant dining and shopping options of Elmwood Village and Hertel Avenue. Please call our office to schedule a viewing.
