Openigloo shows 347+ buildings that fit this page’s filters in the East Village (as of 2026-07-07).

No. This page is about building age and transit proximity. Regulatory categories (like rent-stabilized) depend on the specific building’s legal/ownership situation and are not guaranteed by this filter.

They are useful starting points, but they may lag real-world conditions. Confirm current conditions directly with the building (and, if applicable, ask for recent documentation tied to your unit).

Treat the avg building rating as a broad signal, not a unit guarantee. Read the rated buildings’ themes in tenant Q&A, and ask targeted questions relevant to your apartment (noise, heat, pests history, repairs response).

Verify the move-in cost breakdown, any required documentation, utilities responsibility, and building rules that can affect daily life (laundry, packages, access, and visitor policies).
