Yes—this page currently shows 143+ eligible buildings. Counts reflect what’s in Openigloo’s building dataset at the time of the snapshot.

Pre-war buildings can have different upkeep patterns than newer construction, so tenant Q&A and building-level signals matter more. Still, don’t rely on the category alone—confirm maintenance status, recent work, and current conditions with the building.

Focus on unit-specific details and building processes: maintenance turnaround, elevator availability (if applicable), hot-water timing, laundry access, and any building rules that affect your day-to-day routine.

This page is a building-level scope (pre-war + near M21). Availability can change, so check the specific building’s current apartments for rent on Openigloo and confirm the unit details with the leasing team.
