Pre-war buildings near the 4 train in University Heights

It filters for buildings constructed before 1947. Openigloo uses building records to classify the construction era, so the set reflects pre-war buildings in the University Heights scope near the 4 train.

Use it as a location-based shortcut, then verify from the building address. Check your actual walking route and transfer options, since “near” can still vary by block and time of day.

This scope shows an average rating of 2.1/5 across 9 rated buildings. Use that as a comparison signal, then read the building page details and renter Q&A to understand what’s driving the score.

This page is defined by the 4 train + pre-war filters, not rent regulation or tenant-protection categories. If you need rent-stabilization, good-cause, or similar protections, switch to the relevant filter and confirm details with the building.

Ask the building directly. Filters and open-data signals help you narrow options, but conditions in an older (pre-war) building can change. Use the Q&A prompts as a checklist for current availability, maintenance, and lease process.

Focus on day-to-day reliability and costs: heating performance, hot water timing, elevator status (if applicable), noise or construction updates, and whether any maintenance concerns are ongoing. Confirm how they handle repairs during your lease term.
