The first option is correct:
Fitzgerald, F. Scott. The Great Gatsby. New York City, Scribner, 1925.
(If you’re using modern MLA 8/9, the city is usually omitted: Fitzgerald, F. Scott. The Great Gatsby. Scribner, 1925. For Chicago bibliographies you’d format it slightly differently: Fitzgerald, F. Scott. 1925. The Great Gatsby. New York: Scribner.)
