High-rise buildings near the B49 bus in NYC

Here, high-rise refers to buildings with 13+ floors. Use the building details to confirm the exact floor count, elevator setup, and any doorman or service differences.

The page is limited to buildings that are tagged as being near the B49 bus route. Still, the walk time can vary by entrance and exact stop, so confirm the route and distance you’d use daily.

Openigloo shows 44+ buildings that match both filters (B49 bus + high-rise) as of 2026-07-07.

Match the listing to your real needs: elevator reliability, laundry access, package delivery rules, utilities responsibility, and any building-specific move-in or screening requirements.

The high-rise and B49-bus filters do not guarantee specific amenities. Check each building’s profile for the amenity set and any recurring fees or restrictions that apply.

Reviews and tenant Q&A are helpful but can lag real-world changes. Use them to guide questions, then verify details directly with management (maintenance, noise, policies, and current availability).

Start by shortlisting based on the filters (B49 access + 13+ floors), then compare building-level research signals, reviews, and tenant Q&A to identify common issues to ask about during your tour. Focus on costs beyond the asking rent, too.
