What does “pre-war” mean on this page?

It means the building was built before 1947. Use this filter to compare older construction and typical building characteristics, then confirm condition and updates directly with the property.

What does “near the 1 train” include?

It’s a location-based filter tied to the 1 train corridor. Always verify the specific stop you’ll use and the realistic walking time from the building entrance to avoid surprises.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

Openigloo shows 10,805+ buildings that fit the 1 train + pre-war pair on this NYC scope page.

Does this page show only buildings with available units?

This page is filtered by 1 train + pre-war. Availability can still vary by building, so check each building’s page for what’s currently advertised.

What should I confirm before signing a lease in a pre-war building?

Ask about current building systems (heat, hot water), elevator service, laundry access, pest prevention practices, and any recent renovations. Pre-war buildings often differ a lot even when they’re in the same corridor.

How does Openigloo help me decide, beyond the filters?

Each building page brings together signals (including context from rated buildings) plus tenant Q&A. Still, use these as a starting point and verify the latest terms, costs, and policies with the building.

Are open-data signals or tenant Q&A a guarantee about current conditions?

No. Tenant Q&A reflects past experiences and open-data signals can lag real-world changes. Treat them as prompts to ask the building directly before you commit.
