What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the G train in Downtown Brooklyn

  • Confirm the G train commute you expect by checking walking time from the exact block to your preferred station entrances.
  • Verify that the building is truly pre-war (ask for original build date, major renovation years, and recent system updates).
  • Use the building’s Openigloo rating (from rated buildings) as a starting point, then read tenant Q&A for issues that affect day-to-day living.
  • Before signing, request a full cost breakdown (application fees, deposits, and any one-time move-in charges) and clarify what’s included (e.g., heat, hot water).
  • For any lease terms you’re offered, review renewal expectations and any documented house rules that could affect your routine (noise, package delivery, bikes/laundry).
