Are the building ratings in Openigloo based on Chinatown apartments only?

The rating shown for the filter scope reflects building-level signals summarized as avg_building_rating across 19 rated buildings for Chinatown on this page. Use it as a comparison tool, not a substitute for verifying the specific unit.

What should I ask about in a pre-war building near the M1 bus?

Ask about the building’s current state of core systems (heating, hot water, electrical), maintenance response time, and any known nuisances for the block (street noise, foot traffic, deliveries).

Does being near the M1 bus guarantee shorter commutes or easier access to subway lines?

Not necessarily. Confirm walking time during the times you’d commute and check the closest subway options yourself, since building location to transit entrances can vary block to block.

Where does Openigloo’s info come from, and how should I use it?

Openigloo aggregates building-level signals (including tenant feedback) so you can compare patterns across buildings. Still confirm current policies directly with the building for your specific application and unit.
