What does “low open violations” mean on this Gowanus buildings page?

It’s a data-driven screening filter based on open violations associated with each building. Lower rates narrow your options, but they don’t guarantee that every issue is resolved or that conditions are identical across apartments.

How does the SIM2 bus filter work for this page?

Buildings are included based on how closely they are located to the SIM2 route area. It can help you compare commute-friendly options, but you should still verify your real walking time from the building entrance to the stop you’ll use most.

Does low-open-violations mean the building is “problem-free” or bug-free?

No. This filter uses public open-violation signals, which may not reflect every on-the-ground condition. If pest issues or other problems are a concern for you, ask the building directly and use your own inspection during the tour.

Where does the building information come from?

Openigloo pulls in open-data signals and combines them with renter-focused information (like ratings on rated buildings) and building-specific Q&A so you can sanity-check what the records show against what the building tells you.

How should I use ratings on this page?

Look at the 3.5/5 average building rating across 20 rated buildings as a quick comparison point, then read the Q&A and confirm unit-level details with the building before committing.

Are there any costs or lease details I should confirm even after using these filters?

Yes. Filters don’t cover everything renters pay for. Confirm the full move-in picture (deposit and any required fees), utilities expectations, and any building policies that affect day-to-day living.
