What does “pre-war” mean on Openigloo for this Brooklyn buildings page?

It means the building was constructed before 1947, based on the building’s known construction year from available sources.

How does the “B69 bus” filter work on Openigloo?

The page is scoped to buildings near the B69 bus route. Since “near” can vary by stop and walking route, confirm the closest stop for your exact apartment location.

Are all buildings in this filter the same in terms of condition and maintenance?

No. Filter matching only narrows the search by construction era and bus proximity. Building condition depends on management, unit upgrades, and how maintenance is handled day to day.

What should I confirm before applying for a pre-war building?

Ask about heat/hot water reliability, how repairs are scheduled, any recent façade or system work, and whether the unit has updated electrical/plumbing. Also confirm lease dates and renewal terms in writing.

What costs should I expect beyond the monthly rent?

Even when you like the building, total monthly cost can include items like broker fees (if applicable), security deposit requirements, and utilities. Confirm what’s included versus what you pay separately.

How reliable are Openigloo reviews and tenant Q&A for pre-war buildings?

They’re useful for spotting patterns, but they reflect individual experiences. Use them to form questions, then validate details with the building before committing.
