What does “2-train + pre-war” mean on this page?

It means the buildings you see are in Manhattan and match both: they’re pre-war buildings (built before 1947) and they’re near the 2 train based on Openigloo’s location filter.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

Openigloo shows 7,093+ buildings in this scope that match the 2-train and pre-war filters.

Does pre-war automatically mean rent is lower or the building is rent-stabilized?

No. Pre-war is about construction era. Your rent regulation status (if any) is building-specific, so confirm it with the landlord or management company.

What should I check before applying for a pre-war building near the 2 train?

Confirm practical details like elevator availability, heating approach, laundry access, and how maintenance issues are handled. Also verify street noise and train-related vibration by visiting at different times.

Are Openigloo review signals enough to decide, or should I verify with the building?

Use Openigloo signals as a starting point. Ask management directly about any concerns raised in tenant Q&A (repairs, pest control, building security, and lease procedures), and get answers in writing when possible.

Are fees and deposits included in what I see on the page?

No. Even when a building matches your filters, the full monthly cost can vary. Ask about security deposit, broker fee if applicable, and which utilities are included.
