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

It filters for buildings constructed before 1947. Building age can influence layouts, elevator coverage, and maintenance patterns, so it’s worth confirming the unit’s exact condition and amenities with the building.

How does the “M79-SBS bus” filter work for location?

It limits buildings to the Lenox Hill area near the M79-SBS corridor. Still, walking the block at the times you’ll commute helps you judge noise, sidewalk activity, and entrance practicality.

Are these buildings only on the M79-SBS line itself?

The filter is based on proximity to the M79-SBS bus route within Lenox Hill. It won’t capture every building far from the corridor, so if you’re flexible on walking distance, compare nearby alternatives in Openigloo.

What should I verify with the building before signing a lease?

Ask about move-in costs (deposit and any broker fee process), which utilities are included vs. billed separately, laundry access, elevator status, and any building rules that affect daily routines.

How reliable are the ratings and tenant Q&A on Openigloo?

They’re useful for spotting recurring issues, but they’re not a substitute for a walkthrough and direct questions to management. Building conditions can change, especially after major repairs or staffing changes.
