What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the B39 bus in Lower East Side
- Confirm the commute in-person: check the walk time to the B39 stop and the direction you need most during your commute hours.
- Use rated-building info as a starting point, then verify with the management office about responsiveness, elevator reliability, and recent upgrades typical for pre-war buildings.
- Ask what you’ll pay upfront beyond rent (broker fee, security deposit, and any utility responsibility) and how those costs work in this building.
- If you’re sensitive to noise, ask about street-facing units, window quality, and any building rules that affect deliveries or deliveries-to-lobbies.
- For any pre-war building, confirm heat and hot-water details in writing (including how outages are handled) before signing a lease.
