What does “pre-war” mean on Openigloo?

It refers to buildings constructed before 1947. This filter groups older stock so you can narrow by building age before reviewing the individual buildings’ details.

What does “near the B26 bus” include?

It filters buildings by their location relative to the B26 bus route. Because street access and walk time can vary, confirm the exact commute path for your likely times of day.

Are these buildings guaranteed to have the same features (elevators, laundry, layout)?

No. Even within pre-war buildings near the B26, amenities and unit layouts vary by building and management. Use the building-specific info and questions to confirm what applies to the exact property.

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

Ask about heating and temperature control, window conditions, noise (street and neighbor), maintenance responsiveness, and the state of key building systems. Also confirm total monthly costs beyond the asking rent.

Where does Openigloo’s building information come from?

Openigloo combines building-level signals and community-provided tenant Q&A so you can compare patterns across buildings and reduce surprises before applying.

Do I need to contact the building directly to confirm details?

Yes. Filters help you narrow the set of buildings, but you still need to confirm unit-specific facts with the leasing office (fees, schedule, upgrades, and any restrictions).

How should I use renter questions on Openigloo?

Treat them as guidance. Look for repeat themes (maintenance delays, package handling, noise) and then ask follow-up questions about your unit and timing, especially if the questions were posted months ago.
