Pre-war buildings near the M86-SBS bus in NYC

Pre-war means the building was constructed before 1947. It’s a filter on the building’s construction date, not an indicator of how renovated a unit is today.

Buildings included here match the route proximity requirement used for the M86-SBS corridor. Still, check your exact walking time from the building entrance to your usual stop.

3,187+ buildings match the pre-war + M86-SBS bus filters as of 2026-07-07.

Confirm heating and hot water setup and who is responsible for repairs. Also verify included utilities, any known building or unit-specific issues, and what’s been updated recently.

No. Openigloo signals and Q&A help you screen buildings, but you should still inspect the unit, ask about maintenance workflows, and confirm current terms directly with the building.

They’re helpful context, but they can lag real-world conditions. Treat them as leads and ask management for the latest status on repairs, compliance, and any ongoing work.

Plan for the full cost: broker fee (if applicable), security deposit, and any recurring charges for utilities or building services. Ask for a written breakdown before you commit.
