Pre-war buildings near the BXM4 bus in NYC

It combines location and building age: buildings that are near the BXM4 bus route and built in the pre-war era.

Openigloo shows 7,163+ buildings that meet the BX M4 + pre-war criteria as of 2026-07-07.

Openigloo combines renter-submitted reviews and Q&A with open-data signals from NYC sources to help you shortlist buildings faster.

They’re proximity-based. Before signing, check the building’s location details and confirm your route using the BXM4 timing at the hours you’ll actually commute.

Ask about heating method, hot water recovery, maintenance response time, and any unit-specific issues (noise, water pressure, pests). Pre-war details can vary a lot by building and even by floor.

No. Tenant Q&A is useful context, but you should still tour the unit, confirm repairs in writing, and review the latest building-specific disclosures with the leasing office.

Get the full move-in picture from the specific listing: deposit/broker requirements, utilities expectations, and any one-time fees. Then verify what’s included in the rent versus what you’ll pay separately.
