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

It’s a construction-age filter. Openigloo includes buildings marked as pre-1947 in the building records used to power this page; still confirm the exact details on the building page and with management.

How does the SIM3C bus filter work?

The page focuses on buildings near the SIM3C bus corridor in the Lower East Side. It’s meant to support commute-based searching, but you should confirm walking time and stop location for your route.

Are these apartments income-restricted or subsidized?

No. This page’s filters are about building characteristics (pre-war and location near the SIM3C bus), not income-restricted housing, subsidies, NYCHA, HPD programs, Section 8, or a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.

What review information should I rely on?

Start with what’s listed on each building’s page and the signals aggregated from rated buildings. Then use tenant Q&A for real-world patterns, and verify anything uncertain by asking the building directly.

Does “22+ buildings” mean every unit is available right now?

No. The building_count reflects buildings in scope for the page filters. Availability is unit-by-unit, so check the specific building’s current advertised apartments.

What should I ask about before applying?

Ask for the move-in checklist and timeline, total costs (deposit and any broker-related fees), utility responsibilities, and confirmation of any building policies that affect move-in (laundry, packages, and lease terms).

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Hell’s Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.
