Pre-war buildings near Academy of Urban Planning in NYC

It narrows the NYC building list to buildings near the Academy of Urban Planning area, based on the filter scope in Openigloo. You should still confirm the exact address and your commute time during tour scheduling.

“Pre-war” means the building was built before 1947. On this page, that age filter is combined with the school-area filter so you’re looking at pre-war buildings in the selected area.

Openigloo shows 2,372+ buildings that match the combined filters as of 2026-07-07.

This page is focused on building scope and eligibility by filters (school-area + pre-war). Availability can vary by unit even inside the same building, so confirm the specific apartment status with the building or listing contact.

Treat them as prompts: look for repeated themes (noise, heat, responsiveness, shared-space rules) and then verify specifics with the building. If a concern comes up often, ask for concrete examples or documentation during your visit.

Ask about heating/cooling setup, any known building system upgrades, hot water consistency, and how maintenance requests are handled. Pre-war buildings can have different layouts and operational quirks than newer construction, so get answers in writing when possible.

Confirm the full monthly and move-in costs, including any fees and deposits, plus how utilities are handled. Two units with similar asking rent can differ a lot once total monthly expenses are included.
