What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the Z train in Chinatown

  • Expect older building construction: ask about recent building systems, elevator conditions (if any), and how maintenance requests are handled.
  • Confirm the exact commute: look up the closest Z stop and walking time for the time of day you plan to travel.
  • Use the rated buildings on Openigloo as a starting point, but verify current conditions and policies with the super or leasing office.
  • Before signing, review move-in costs (deposit, fees) and your lease terms, including renewals, rent adjustments, and any required documentation.
  • For pre-war buildings, ask about bedbug/rodent prevention practices and when the last professional treatment occurred, since open records and reports may not reflect what’s happening today.
