Not necessarily. The building_count reflects eligible buildings in this filter/scope. For availability, check the specific building’s current advertised apartments on Openigloo and confirm timelines with management.

What should I ask the building before committing to a lease?

Ask about the application process, deposit amounts, lease start flexibility, utilities expectations, and any building policies that affect move-in or daily routines. If something is mentioned in tenant Q&A, ask for the current practice.

Does “near the C train” guarantee a short commute in practice?

No. Walking routes, time of day, and station access can change your real commute. Confirm the route you’d use and ask how the building handles noise or construction if relevant.
