Pre-war buildings near A. Philip Randolph Campus High School in NYC

It’s a location-based scope. Openigloo groups nearby buildings so you can compare options that match where you want to live in relation to the school.

“Pre-war” means the building was built before 1947. On this page, that filter is used to narrow results to older NYC building stock.

They’re a current count of eligible buildings on Openigloo as of the snapshot date. Building availability can change, so verify which units are advertised right now.

Treat reviews and Q&A as patterns, not guarantees for a specific unit. Use them to generate questions for the super/management—especially around repairs, pests, and maintenance turnaround.

Even when you focus on building type and location, the full monthly and move-in picture matters. Confirm broker fee, deposits, and whether utilities are included for the specific lease you’re offered.

Ask about elevator reliability, laundry access, recent capital work, and the building’s maintenance process. If reviews mention recurring issues, ask for the most recent records or the current remediation plan.

Openigloo can surface open-data signals and building-level information, but real-world conditions can change. Use what you see as a starting point, then confirm details directly with the building before committing to a lease.
