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

It flags buildings built before 1947, based on building record data. Treat it as a building-age filter, not a condition guarantee—ask about current upgrades and maintenance.

How should I use the “X28 bus” part of the filter?

Use it to shortlist buildings near the X28 route. You should still verify the exact walking distance from your likely stop to the building entrance and your typical travel schedule.

If I use these filters, does it guarantee any amenities or building condition?

No. Pre-war buildings near a transit corridor can still vary a lot by elevator access, laundry setup, and recent repairs. Always confirm the details for the specific unit and building with the landlord or superintendent.

Is there anything I should confirm before paying an application or deposit?

Yes: current lease terms, move-in date flexibility, security deposit handling, and any written policies on maintenance requests and entry/package procedures.
